The damage is done. You can't overthrow the king (whether you pledge fealty to iTerm2, PowerShell/WSL, Putty, Hyper ... ) if you have to sign up to get past the castle gates. And in the two years it took to remove the signup, the townsfolk have realized their kings are good enough for what they want to do anyway.

#12bind keys please!
+1, bindkeys will be the final feature to make it feel fully fledged for me. But signing out is also nice now

#13ha - never heard of this so I downloaded it. Still get presented with a sign up screen but I guess before you couldn't skip? There is a skip option and when you click it it says "are you SURE you want to skip?" - isn't this a technical product for technical users? If they're trying to rehabilitate their image, I certainly can't see being patronizing is the answer. Only thing I'll be skipping is this software.

#14My daily driver for a few months now, even after trying Rio/Ghostty/Wezterm... Favorite feature is the notification when a long running command has finished. I wish I could hook any command there...
This is possible using hooks in shells such as zsh regardless of what terminal emulator you're using.
Re: Warp terminal – no more login required
#15Warp is still a development tool run by a VC backed company, and history tells us how this will end, despite positive intentions and promises of “we won’t be evil, seriously”.
Other terminals are free, open, and more than good enough, why would I use Warp? I’ll pay for good development tools, it’s not about that at all, it’s just that Warp is a… terminal. I pay for JetBrains because it’s that much better than the free options (my opinion). Is warp that much better than iterm?
I do have an open mind, convince me that warp is worth it, that it is irreplaceable. Convince that I need it even though it will be enshitified like Postman.

I set up notifications for a command finishing in my fish config. If you're interested in how it's set up.

Nothing to add, just wanted to say I really applaud your dedication to that analogy in this comment.

#18Too late? I feel dirty because I went against my morals and did give you a fake email address the first time around, but now you do this, so what the heck?
I also have been trailing out waveterm [1], which is open source and can be used without telemetry or logins. Mike from wave was really nice to chat with and ultimately that's what I decided to use.

#19The older I get, the more appreciation I have for simple tools. Terminal is certainly one of those tools that I want to stay simple.
Good luck to the team, not for me.

#20Great tool, daily driver for me and most of my team
