Given how critical good terminal experience is to modern IT the fact that putty is the go to tool for this in windows is a bad joke. Not to put down putty.

From the point of resourcing, I mean. Here we have Microsoft on a gazillion dollars of capital and one of the most critical tools for several people is developed by a single talented hobbyist who gives it for free.

Not to disagree with you on anything but same gazillion dollar company is now doubling down of a Javascript code editor because writing high quality native code is so difficult and expensive.
