They look the same iirc. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] brax@sh.itjust.works 1 point 2 years ago Oh, you might actually be right there... I'm not sure now I didn't realize there were alternatives. I remember trying it a while back when I found a list of fancy looking terminal apps.
