I use multiple terminals. I like Ghostty and Kitty. I the past I tried multiple others like Guake, Allacritty, xterm, Gnome Terminal, ITerm (when I was forced to use a Mac), Windows Terminal (I am now forced to work on Windows).
And of all terminals I still prefer Kitty. There is one feature Kitty has that no other has (or not yet) and that is the 'open last execution log' (ctrl + shift + g). It's a lifesaver.

When running a script in the terminal but it fails and it's a huge output and the script was a hack and it only outputs to standard out than a 'ctrl + shift + g' opens the last output of a command in less so I can analyze it's content.
When do you use this? (guessing, when you run something that crashes the terminal?)
Possibly related: I use ctrl+shift+h (and somehow configured it to use neovim), which is a nice way to navigate the terminal history - useful when pilfering through thousands of lines of local server logs
