In KDE I use Yakuake most, then Konsole. In LxQt I use QTerminal Drop Down most, then QTerminal.

kitty. This is the first terminal that satisfied me in my life. It really is helpful.

As a Japanese I've been using terminals that support Japanese from the beginning, long before the universal acceptance/deployment of Unicode. (Mostly two-byte, but sometimes other multi-byte encodings were necessary. The situation was far more complex than iso-8859-*.)

My history looks like

(xterm? ->) kterm (k not German, korean nor KDE, but "kanji") -> mlterm (another Multi-Lingual terminal) -> rxvt-unicode (meh) -> kitty (since 2020)

On my gentoo server I almost never run a GUI terminal (I don't even think I have one installed), but I will use xterm to ssh in from a GUI box, and use tmux on the server.

Will plasma work outside of kde? I suppose so, but I prefer to ask. Which package install it?

In short, yes, but depends a little on what 'plasma' means here exactly.

The kde-apps/konsole package is not tied to the full Plasma desktop, or require running the Plasma desktop to be able to use it.

You can even use the KDE window manager, KWin, with a different desktop environment such as LXQt for example.

It doesn't need wayland and work into fvwm-crystal, but doesn't seam to understand the EWMH freedesktop hints and, as a consequence, insist to get a size wider than the screen at startup by default. Well, the preferences are a little bit tricky, but I succeeded to make its window smaller at startup.

Gnome-termianl mostly. I got used to it and I tried a few others but didn't find anything more or special in them.

I use LXTerm under OpenBox. My backup terminal is Sakura. I also keep a copy of xfce4-terminal on-board. None of these get in the way of using the shell/command-line interface.
