The new Windows Terminal

In the test, Windows Terminal (weirdly written as "terminal.exe") comes up as #4 in the scoring table. As to the "love" question, I still watch this video from time to time: ▶ this video :) EDIT: I love the easter egg with the names of the developers across the Windows timeline :)

I wish there were an option to export a video like the example on the homepage (with some ability to control the camera path). I'd love to be able to use it to make a promotional video for a developer tool similar to the announcement video for the Windows Terminal. ▶ this video

It's faster and works better than old conhost.exe they're also planning to overhaul it with more modern features judging from its trailer[0] (yes, this terminal has a fancy 3D trailer) [0]: ▶ this video

Has anyone tried the new official terminal? [0]/[1] It looks rather interesting, if still in prerelease. (also, there's a trailer for it on YouTube - so weird [2]) 0: link 1: link 2: ▶ this video

▶ this video -- this advertisting video is super cool and nerdy. Who could have thought someone could win a prize with a terminal in the 1990s, when everybody tried to get rid of terminals as hard as they could? I wish we could have a modern feature rich terminal with real blurring background and powerful features on X11/Xorg/Qt/Gtk/"the linux world". Konsole (KDE) is amongst the best I know so far.

This is just an attempt by Microsoft to stem the flow of power users to Linux Desktop. Did you see the flash video advertisement[0] Microsoft made for their new terminal? To me it feels more like Microsoft is trying to attract people fleeing from macOS because of all their recent mis-steps with the MBP. [0]: ▶ this video

They just announced Windows Terminal and even spent time and money on a marketing video for this yet unreleased product: ▶ this video Granted, conhost will stay for compatibility reasons and this is a new thing. But it's open source: link . And according to the readme contains the source for conhost.exe too.

What I also find interesting is that in the announcement video of Windows Terminal (0:20) you can see the command "wt install", which sounds like a possible future package manager? ▶ this video
