I'm not an electron hater, but a terminal in electron sounds like a parody.

"built on an open web framework...."

hard pass then. Why the hell would I want to open a browser instance for a terminal???

Unfortunately this terminal emulator uses electron, but otherwise looks nice

No Zsh support for now, and maybe no user fonts?

And a warning: it's got telemetry on by default.

it's got telemetry on by default.

Very, very hard pass. Might even blow out my suspension doing so

Backed by VC, so you know they're just waiting for an exit

Cross platform, a long as it's mac or linux lol.

What the fuck does it actually do, and what is one use case?

[-] interolivary@beehaw.org 10 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago)

Well it collects data from you, and one use case for your data is allowing a nice 💰 exit for the venture capital -backed company building it.

Other than that, not a whole lot that's worth yet another "powered by open web standards" Electron piece of shit

lol, no thank you

[-] zerofk@lemm.ee 5 points 2 years ago

I … Wha…. WHY??

[-] MarkPotatoes@lemm.ee 1 points 2 years ago

I’ll have a look to this, a VScode editor like for remote can be handful sometime

Personally I am waiting for the warp terminal to try it out: https://www.warp.dev/
