For years I've been using ConEmu for basic Git/cmd commands. It would look something like this. Quite simple, but would get the job done after spen...

The new Windows Terminal is amazing. I've used Conemu and I still get the alure of it but the new Terminal is top notch. I'd give it a shot and see if you like it. My only gripe with the new terminal is that say you change your PATH env variable for Powershell only..you have to close the entire Terminal app out and then reopen before it updates. Can't just close the PS tab and reopen it.
Here's a link to my profile.json for Terminal. It's got a ridiculous amount of themes installed and some setup for the different consoles so you can see some of the layout and options. github.com/afmsavage/default-proje...
Thanks for sharing. It's almost 4AM here, but I'll try it first thing in the morning.
I just hope I can set a keyboard shortcut to un/hide it. This is something I love about ConEmu.
Terminus.
Used Windows terminal and it kept crashing after a while.
Ubuntu Terminal is ok. It gets the job done.
At the end Terminus won out for me.
EDIT: I don't and haven't touched Terminus in a long while.
These days I switch between Windows Terminal and Alacritty. The latter for speed. Doesn't have panes and windows, but that's what tmux is for.
I'm afraid that being just another emulator, in the end I'll run into similar issues like with ConEmu...
Anything you use from a GUI though is a terminal emulator, no matter what they say otherwise. An actual terminal is either physical hardware (usually connected through a serial line, like the old DEC VT100 or the famous IBM 3270) or a text-based video mode on your GPU (such as the classic 80x25 VGA text mode used by DOS).
My "stack": Windows Terminal + PowerShell Core + WSL
No need Git bash anymore.
Don't you prefer to have them all in one place?
I prefer to have them all in Windows env. Flexibility of Linux (WSL) + Windows stuffs (PowerShell) and a coolest UI of Windows Terminal. One more thing, I use
scoop
for programs installing.Out of curiosity, why did you choose scoop over chocolatey?
It's simpler than
choco
at installing new softwares, no UAC, focusing on open-sources, installing on user-scope as default. I feel controllingscoop
is nearly similar tobrew
or some popular linux package managers which I've used.More details for anyone want to know:

WSL with Alacritty github.com/jwilm/alacritty and WSL with hyper hyper.is are both good.
Wouldn't you say the two are basically opposites?
It depends on your preference since Hyper is electron based and more hackable while Alacritty is written in rust and is meant to be fast.
I am increasingly using WSL when I use Windows. Worth a try, if you ask me.
Powershell no doubt, if you must use Windows then powershell, if you can switch to linux then any terminal.
But powershell has tons of shortcuts tailored just like Linux's so it's just comfortable.
wsl and power shell. Very interested in trying out the new windows terminal, but going to wait until official release probably.
I use Conemu as well, but if you are doing a lot of SSH-ing, maybe you should look into MobaXterm?
