Hey everyone, I’m hunting for a blazing-fast terminal emulator that lets me heavily customize specific behaviors. I've already tried Alacritty, WezTerm, Kitty, and Konsole, but I ran into issues or roadblocks with all of them for my specific workflow.

Before I keep searching, I want to know if any terminal can handle this exact configuration:

• Performance: Must be exceptionally fast and lightweight (GPU-accelerated preferred).
• Window Snapping: Automatically launch or snap to the left half of the monitor.
• Keybindings: Rebind Ctrl + C to copy and Ctrl + V to paste
• Mouse Action: Open a fresh command-line window/tab when clicking the middle mouse button.

If you know of a terminal emulator that checks every single one of these boxes—and can bypass the limitations I hit with Alacritty, WezTerm, Kitty, and Konsole—please drop your recommendations or config snippets below!

bcz of some issues like my eyes(this is why I need the fractional scaling) for example, I switched from Mint to Kubuntu. I'd like to ask(if it's possible to know) what will we have in the 23 version, which should come in the December? Just I love Mint for using everyday things, but unfortunately it's uncomfortable to use for me now

I can change the date format on the panel, and on the popup tab. But not on the calendar itself. It's a small thing, but as a non-American it's also a bit maddening. Like water torture.

Changing the locale makes no difference. Am I overlooking something obvious?

Earlier today I decided to install linux mint on my older lenovo thinkpad laptop computer. Previously it had windows 11 pro installed on it. I'm really liking the software already, I've got one issue that I can't seem to figure out how to correct. I've got my laptop video hooked up to a thirty two inch digital TV , but I've got the same video image showing on my laptop as well as my television and I only want the image showing on my television and so far I can't seem to figure out how to get it setup that way.

The straw was when I tried changing the system font on windows but then I find out that I have to go into the registry editor to do so.

so I swapped lol...

i draw a lot using csp back in windows but csp isnt supported on linux so it runs really bad (i turned broke after buying csp)😢

Evening all.

How important is it to verify the ISO image?
I’ve had a go a few times and I’m not quite grasping it. I’m not new to computers but I’ve never done anything like that. I’m gonna use the university of Kent mirror.
Does anybody still do this or not bother.

I'm gonna be honest, the Mint Notificationcenter and the settings regarding it could be better.
does anyone have a good alternative they can recomend?

I am a musician/producer and I am using Linux Mint.
It is working great.

I got a warning that I had 0 space left in /, but that's not what 'df -h /' says. Edited: Correction, lsblk says 29G, du -ch / says 23G.

https://privacynotes.app/ - has anyone tried it? It looks like Standard Notes with more features but does not load today.

I want the most performance I can get on my PC with 3060 ti 48gb ram and i5 9600kf.

Should I really change or not worth it?

from windows*

I'm dual-booting Linux Mint Cinnamon 22.3 with Windows 11 Pro. It's easy enough for me to change things up, so I wonder if making the change from EXT4 to Btrfs is worth the effort.

If anybody is using the Btrfs file system with their Linux, how are things going?

Hi, I have a question. I have a 2015 Dell Inspiron 15 3552 with 4GB of RAM, a 128GB SSD, and an Intel Celeron N3060 (1.60GHz) processor. I plan to use it for things like NetBeans, web browsing, and watching videos—basically just the essentials, since it's the only computer I have for my programming course. I currently have Linux Mint XFCE installed, but it still feels a bit slow. What do you recommend?

Hola que tal, ayer me cambie a linux por primera vez y mi red esta inestable y lenta, al menos cuando hago videoconferencia mediante meet, es muy lento, y aveces deja de funcionar el firefox por la red aunque tengo casi las 5 barritas llenas.
Alguien sabe a que se puede deber esto y como podría solucionarlo? Nunca he usado linux antes asi que estoy familiarizandome un poco pero por ahora estoy bastante a gusto porque va mucho mas rapido, el unico problema es la red :(
Mi laptop es una toshiba satellite con 4gb ram. Por momentos me va exelente la red pero avveces pasa eso.

I have a 32” ultrawide and a 24” secondary monitor. I can’t get the system to recognize the 32” unltrawide as monitor 1. Which is causing my games to load onto the 24”. I have set it as the primary.The only way I can get it to recognize it as monitor 1 is to move it, in the layout box, to the right of monitor 2 which means I have to pan to the left of my main monitor to get the cursor on the monitor to the right. I have had to unplug my secondary monitor, load a game then replug it in, and that’s just not a long term solution for me.

Can someone help me out here? Thanks!

I did a fresh install of Linux Mint. My master volume remains permanently stuck at 46%. Whenever I try to set it a different volume, it will briefly be at the selected level and then immediately revert back to 46%. It does this no matter what method I use to change the volume, whether it be through the actual volume bar itself or through a command.

Any idea what might be going on?

guys today something bad happened i was using blender and it crashed i pressed alt f4 nothing and like my laptop was freezed after that i unplugged the laptop and when i turned it on 5gb of storage was gone i tried bleachbit i asked ai nothing pls help guys

Saludos desde Caracas, Venezuela..... me cambié a Linux Mint porque tenía una pc de torre viejísima con un i7 de primera generación sufriendo con Windows 11. Probé de todo un poco: Cachy OS, BigLinux, MX Linux, Fedora, OpenSUSE, y brother, nada se compara a la estabilidad de LMDE 7. Cuando empiezas a meterle mano para personalizarlo y le agarras el gusto, te vuelves imparable! Ahora monté un Ryzen 5 3550H con 32gb de RAM y esta vaina es un cohete!

I am from Caracas, Venezuela..... I switched to Linux Mint because I used to have a very old pc tower with an i7 first gen running Windows 11. I distro-hopped a lot, tried Cachy OS, BigLinux, MX Linux, Fedora, OpenSUSE, but man, nothing compares to the rock-solid stability of LMDE 7. When you start learning to customize it and actually enjoy doing it, you are imparable! Now I have a Ryzen 5 3550H with 32gb of RAM and this thing is a freaking rocket!
