1. Default is now Windows Terminal which is so much better than Cmd and Mac Terminal.

2. Ctrl+C works for copy when text is selected otherwise SIGINT.

But both are awful compared to the other terminal emulators available. My favourites are alacritty and kitty.

Yep, I use Alacritty both on macOS and Linux and I love it. Still not sure about Kitty, I hate Python scripting but might pull the trigger at one point, we'll see.

I would use alacritty exclusively if it supported ligatures.

IMO Windows Terminal is amazing

Good design, great performance, great text rendering

Has tabs, themes, quake mode, a settings UI, and keyboard shortcuts (that you can rebind)

On macOS, I like iTerm2 a lot!

I've never had a terminal crash, except Windows Terminal.

> Good design

I strongly disagree. I feel that Windows Terminal suffers from a bloated UI and completely asinine organization of the configuration options.

I use Alacritty in Windows with WSL2/Ubuntu. Works without troubles.
