Since author is showcasing cross-os setups,

I think it is appropriate to mention WezTerm.

The cross-os terminal emulator with multiplexing and is instant startup on windows as compared to seconds for Windows Terminal or iTerm2.

It allows for a consistent terminal setup across Windows, macOS and Linux.

Agree - Wezterm is great!

It's my goto on linux now, and I even installed in on my Mac where I'm daily driving Warp.

Any differences over Alacritty? Seems like this has same exact main selling point.

Out of curiosity, does WezTerm allow you to "Select output of last command" (Shift-Cmd-A) and jump backwards/forwards through your scrollback command-by-command with Shift-Cmd-Up/Down? (And other features that Shell Integration[0] brings along?)

(Thing like that are what set iTerm apart for me, and why I keep going back to it...)

Been using wezterm for a few months now and love it. On Linux I run a bunch of windows under Sway, on my Mac I run it in "mosh+tmux mode" to connect to a session on the Linux box, a "thin terminal".
