I also use ghostty because it’s themeable, I found adding transparency helped me because i can have whatever I need to see under the terminal (helps for command cheatsheets)
Konsole and yakuake. Bear in mind that the terminal I was comparing them to was Windows’ CMD.EXE, and anything is better than that.
Yakuake is a Quake-style terminal, which means that you can open and close it with an F-key, and it scroll down from the top of the screen. This is both cool-looking and convenient. I like to have some window transparency, so that I can see through the terminal window somewhat. I also like to use a nerd font like Fantasque Sans Mono.
How do you get a terminal app that’s cool and user-friendly? Any recommendations?
Install some terminal apps
Examples:

This is the font I use

Kitty is also a good example ! Very customizable but maybe less user friendly to begin with.
