Has anyone tried the new official terminal? [0]/[1]

It looks rather interesting, if still in prerelease. (also, there's a trailer for it on YouTube - so weird [2])

I use Windows Terminal about 10 hours a day. Windows Terminal has got tabs, Unix cut and Paste, emoji support (surprisingly how common outputting emoji is in tests suites etc).

The 0.5 version is usable as a day to day terminal.

Alternative most stable Terminal is Fluent which I've used for a couple of years now.

I have small reviews of about 8 of the Windows terminal apps at: https://github.com/mikemaccana/powershell-profile
