Any Viable Alternatives to Standard Terminal?

It occurred to me earlier that Everyone's in Terminal so much that there may be at least a few other variations out there that some sort of extra functionality, so I'm curious if any here are running something beyond the standard offering.

I use Ptyxis. It is a bit more polished in my Opinion and offers Color Profiles. It isn't much, I know. But there are a Bunch of them preinstalled. So, I don't need Gogh. And I use Starship for customizing Bash.

Other Alternatives would be:

  • Alacritty
  • Kitty
  • Ghostty

which have Config Files with that You can set up them.

Sometimes xterm is needed. Before Ventoy and the like were on the scene I used to us MultiSystem:

I add "oh-my-zsh" and use zsh instead of bash.
Then, I add on PowerLevel10k and helpful tools like autocomplete, spellcheck and so on.
While these are not different terminal emulators - they do qualify as "beyond the standard offering."
