Source code for Quake 2 rerelease
Discovering the drop down console was a revelation.
An homage: http://guake-project.org/

Do you have any recommended modifications that you make to your default Mint installation?
One of the very first things I do is to install Guake terminal. I usually change its hotkey to ctrl-alt-T, because I'm so used to using that for the terminal.

ddterm alternative with split view?
Maybe Guake will be to your liking?

I want to edit window border but there is no option to.
I did discover one irrelevant cool thing though, well worth your time playing with: GUAKE --> http://guake-project.org

Any Windows terminals that can drop-down Quake-style?
Guake does it, too (on Linux).
- Is it possible to upgrade the default terminal to something like the default Kali one?
- Sorry for the bitrate, but can someone help me with this performance issue? I just built this pc, and for some reason in game my fps appears to be capping itself at certain times, going as low to 30 when i can easily have 300+ as if i have vsync on. Is there a setting or something causing this?

How do I reduce the volume of an app that only plays sound while in focus?
I'm not sure which desktop or window manager you use, but you could try using a drop-down terminal like Guake and running pulsemixer on a tab in it.

Release Notes for Ghostty 1.1.0
I don't want to learn tmux to handle a feature that my OS already handles. If alacritty supported tabs (and was slightly less hostile, e.g. [0]) I'd be happy with it

From iTerm To WezTerm
I also tried Alacritty, but it is very basic and lacks the features I need. Recently, I tested Ghostty, which has gained huge attention – it has nice defaults, but its RAM usage is concerning (around 250MB per empty tab). Currently, it also lacks buffer search, which makes the terminal useless for me.

Ghostty 1.0
That's a great approach.
Not sure on the current state of Alacritty, but a few years back the suggested solution for users interested in battery performance was to switch a different terminal emulator: https://github.com/alacritty/alacritty/issues/3473#issuecomm...

Preview images, videos, fonts, PDFs ... in Vifm.
The terminal I am currently using is st but I have also tested this "Vifm" enhancement in kitty and alacritty.

Faking the tmux experience on Windows using AutoHotkey
I chose Alacritty for this. Why? Because it's written in Rust. Is there any other reason? It also has a pretty simple and has an easy to understand settings page and uses TOML. It also has built in support for vi motions. All wins. It's pretty easy to install as well, just follow the link above. I went with the portable version. Just make sure you note where it is going to look for the configuration files.
