transparent terminal background

I just upgraded to Ubuntu 26.04 and one thing I'm struggling with is not having a way to make my terminal background transparent. Did ubuntu or gnome kill this ability and if so, what terminal woul...

Decided to customise #LinuxMint on my old #Macbook Air 13", 2012. I only use it very sparingly so never took time to personalise it. I just installed #zsh onto the #gnometerminal and my favourite theme #Powerlevel10k. Time to choose a colour theme! This seems like a good source!

Color Schemes for Terminals

I've been running #GnomeTerminal for years, but now it may bet time for a change. What #Terminal emulators are you using on your #Linux systems and why?

#foss #linuxmint #debian #operatingSystem #FOSSOS

#Arch #Linux #shell #terminal

I suspected #zsh was becoming increasingly sluggish. Wrongfully, as I found out. It was probably the #kitty terminal that was responsible for this. Over the past week, I tested some shell and terminal software. I stuck with "zsh" as the shell. There were interesting alternatives for the terminal, but configuring them required several years of study. In the end, #GnomeTerminal won the race. It is easy to configure and only requires a fraction of the RAM compared to "Kitty".

Ich hatte ja #zsh in Verdacht, zunehmend behäbiger zu werden. Zu Unrecht, wie ich herausfand. Vielmehr war wohl #kitty als Terminal dafür verantwortlich. Innerhalb der vergangenen Woche testete ich daher einige Shell- und Terminal-Software. Als Shell blieb es bei "zsh". Beim Terminal gab es interessante Alternativen, deren Konfiguration jedoch ein mehrjähriges Studium erforderten. Letztlich hat derzeit #GnomeTerminal das Rennen gemacht. Gut konfigurierbar benötigt es nur einen Bruchteil RAM gegenüber "Kitty".

mucho se habla del #DistroHopping pero ¿qué me dicen del #TerminalHopping o #ShellHopping?

yo por ejemplo he tocado #GnomeTerminal, #Terminator, #guake, #yakuake, #kitty y #alacritty que recuerde. Pasé un largo tiempo usando #Guake hasta que extrañé mi tecla F12 y decidí usar un área de trabajo completa solo para el terminal, como hago ahora.

De shells he pasado casi toda mi vida en #bash y llegué a tocar #zsh y otras raras pero ahora soy feliz en #fish

¿y ustedes?

ok, llevo unos días que cambié #gnomeTerminal por #alacritty y tengo las siguientes

I M P R E S I O N E S

cosas que extraño de gnome-terminal:

* que sí le sirve la pantalla completa
* que puede adaptarse al "modo oscuro" del resto del escritorio

cosas que me gustan de Alacritty:

* que le puedo añadir transparencia al terminal y se ve mamón
* que puedo seleccionar, desplazarme en la historia, copiar y pegar sin usar el ratón
* que puedo configurar con #TOML

I code on #terminals since 40 years, text-only, and since 10+ years I wait for mixing graphics - and then you realize, #SIXEL (inline graphics) is available since forever, except most terminal emulators like #gnometerminal don't support it. black-box does support it but gnu-screen doesn't, here what's possible (aichat not yet released):
