Konsole vs Tilix

Konsole can bookmark ssh and telnet sessions, directories, and it can open tabs in a folder for easy access.

Konsole supports split-view which splits the window into two (or more) konsole instances. This is very useful for people who work a lot on the terminal and don't want to spend time navigating between different windows or tabs.

Konsole supports true color and smooth font. This made konsole more fanstatic than other terminal emulators.

Konsole can be embedded into desktop so it's always easily accessible, but not in the way of other windows.

By going to file > save output, you can send all screen output to a text file.

Konsole can be accessed by pressing F4 in Dolphin, which is convenient for when the user needs to open the terminal in a particular spot of the file structure.

Most terminals in Linux don't support font ligature, while many modern fonts such as PragmataPro or Fira Code already have decent coverage of font ligature. Support for font ligature makes user experience and font management much easier (i.e. you don't need to keep two copies of the same font just to use in the console)

Users can associate each bookmark or SSH session with a custom icon, thus giving a visual hint to quickly identify a tab when a lot of tabs are open.

In particular solarized.

Konsole can monitor activities and notify the user through system notifications when a certain activity happens. This is a very customizable feature too: you can write scripts that can use this feature and notify you for whatever you want.

Konsole is usually very fast. It boots up very quickly and takes less than a second (averages to 0.25-0.59 seconds) to display files of up to 600 MB.

Profiles containing different settings can be created, saved, and loaded. Color schemes, window transparency, scroll bar, key bindings, start-up commands, window border, and menu bar can all be customized according to the user's needs.

Good menu to customize.

In addition to tiling, Tilix supports placing separate sessions in tabs or switching from one to another through a sidebar.

The user can split terminals horizontally or vertically, according to their needs or preferences.

Tilix follows the GNOME Human Interface Guidelines and uses the UI patterns of this desktop environment.

Tiling and ability to type into multiple terminals simultaneously is Terminator's 2 most significant features. Tilix has them as well.

Many actions in Tilix can be triggered with configurable shortcuts.

Tilix follows GNOME HIG whereas gnome-terminal doesn't. GNOME should use Tilix as their default terminal.

Unlike the standard GNOME Terminal, Tilix supports configurable background transparency.

Tilix has that new GNOME look, with a HeaderBar. It can also be disabled.

Inside a session, you can select multiple terminals, which will receive the same input simultaneously.

The new 1.30 version of Tilix supports a quake mode enabling it to work as a drop-down terminal.

As fast as gnome-terminal, if not faster.

When running commands it feels snappier.

You can copy text from the terminal as HTML for embedding in web settings.

Great support for solarized color schemes, and no setup is involved.
