When the window management and UI/UX of your OS is so bad the terminal emulator devs decide they can do a better job themselves...

I love the honesty.

I didn't switch any profile, I just clicked a link in terminal and it opened as a tab in the same window. I then dragged this tab to be split view with the original terminal

Amazing terminal, it has served me so well over the years. I wouldn’t consider anything else. If you lean in to the advanced features, there’s nothing to touch it. Can’t believe it’s free, but I am very grateful for the fact.

Thanks, George!
