what terminal emulator do you use and why?
Until recently, my answer would have been Terminator. Recently, however, the lack of support for OSC52 and the fact that the workarounds don't always work reliably has been bothering me more and more. Based on https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/vte/-/issues/2495, it is quite unlikely that VTE (and therefore Terminator) will ever support OSC52.
