This. I love iTerm2 and hadnt found an acceptable replacement on Linux until I installed Terminator, which I would say is 70% there.
Other than that I use Linux (Mint) for my main Desktop OS, but I still deal with plenty of rough edges. The latest ones:
- Wifi doesn't work after suspend wakeup.
- After upgrading OS to next version using recommended UI method, PC us unable to start graphics mode bc it doesn't find some random UI package... i had to login in TTY and manually install it.
- CS:GG, a game with Linux native port suddenly decided to get choppy lagged sound. Same game works well in Windows in same PC
- Connecting bluetooth headphones sometimes works, sometimes doesn't
So yeah, plenty of rough edges. Still I use it because I love the programming workflow and use docker with Linux containers.
