From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

You were a fan, but didn't realise that it's minimal on purpose?
It's AFAIK the only popular, minimal, GPU accelerated terminal emulator. It doesn't have tabs, multiplexing, and other features because it's not supposed to. Your wm/tmux handles that already, and scrollbars are waste of screen space.
Would you also complain that a flat head screwdriver is missing those cross bits to help you unscrew phillips heads?
