I stepped back into macOS for the first time in ~8 years and was disappointed by Terminal. To be honest, I think Windows Terminal is much better, which feels a bit weird to say.


Terminal came out 23 years ago, Windows Terminal in 2019. The old Windows terminal was garbage.

I still prefer the blurred transparency of Terminal over the too transparent Windows Terminal, but that’s a matter of taste.


Hey, Terminal.app's been around ever since NeXTSTEP was born. Make it 35 years?


Pretty sure if it gets upgraded to become more modern somebody somewhere will also complain about it losing its simplicity.
