St, Xterm, Terminator - depends on hardware and os.

I’m most comfortable when my window manager and terminal emulator are well integrated and keyboard centric.

Love that I can easily switch from phone to laptop when working with Fadein.

Linux makes a fantastic writing / research machine but helping folks make the transition to Linux can be difficult.

Everyone comes at it from a different angle and with a different intensity. Sometimes just letting them explore available options can be what they need. I’ve found that allowing the transition to be an open, running conversation, can be really helpful and much less stressful. There’s a lot to learn, even with Ubuntu, Mint, Fedora, etc…

If you haven’t found them already, here’s a few personal favorite writing apps/systems (in no particular order) I’ve enjoyed using over the years.
