From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

Like the question above am I just an old man that's not keeping up with the times or is terminator still a great terminal to use in 2025?

I'm pretty sure someone thought

Man it would be nice if horses were faster

I'd say the same is true for terminal emulators.

It would be neat if I could use tabs

Or

I wish there were better ways to render things to the terminal

At the end of the day it's a black box where you can type commands. If thats all you need than you need anything else.

Agreed. I feel like this is a prime case for the Fisherman's Parable.
