So what's the most promising successor?

[dandv]

Now that finalterm is finally terminated (groan), what's the most promising successor?

[ferki]

There's an update to the discontinuation announcement which mentions iTerm2. Also Terminology comes into my mind.

[bobef]

Not really a successor but check fishshell.com .

[gsemet]

Guake Reloaded ?

(note: I am the maintainer)

https://github.com/black-screen/black-screen gained traction last week, fulfilling my prediction that an Electron-based terminal emulator would appear. Unfortunately, it seems that its VT100 emulation capabilities are at least as buggy as Final Term's – yes, implementing terminal emulation is that hard.

I use fish shell, and I very much like it, but black screen looks really neat as well.
Just tried combining fish with black screen and got strange results though. 🚧

I'm currently using Fish + Terminology, and they go nicely together.
I may give Black Screen a try, however, after seeing it here. =]

finalterm-reborn looks promising (so long as development is maintained).

@nashley Wish finalterm-reborn had some binaries.
