Windows terminal is great. Very performant and looks really nice. I also have mobaxterm for doing work remote machines, but for local work using WSL Ubuntu itβs my preferred terminal by far.

Oh I used it only when it first came out. I went back to PuTTY (i never use the console on windows for other stuff and I'm not allowed to use WSL at work). And at home i only have a windows box for gaming.
So there was some assumption on my part sorry. But informed assumption because other stuff I work with (Teams, Outlook) have only become much worse since their release :)

To be a fly on the wall when they decide to go live with a Teams (New) that asks if you want to keep using Teams [not new].

How do you judge performance of a terminal ? I know graphics in the terminal is an edge case and all but when I'm running a chafa [0] application Windows terminal on Windows is about 1000x slower than alacritty on mac, I run into issues where if I hold down a key all the key events get queued up as if the graphics thread is blocking the applications ability to react to key events, so I just have to baby it and hit one key at a time.
