Unfortunately this terminal emulator uses electron, but otherwise looks nice

No Zsh support for now, and maybe no user fonts?

And a warning: it’s got telemetry on by default.

Very, very hard pass. Might even blow out my suspension doing so

Backed by VC, so you know they’re just waiting for an exit

What the fuck does it actually do, and what is one use case?

Well it collects data from you, and one use case for your data is allowing a nice 💰 exit for the venture capital -backed company building it.

Other than that, not a whole lot that’s worth yet another “powered by open web standards” Electron piece of shit

I’m not an electron hater, but a terminal in electron sounds like a parody.
