Just to note a recruiter friend of mine says this is utter bs - you are more likely to be rejected by a recruiter who spots it.

There's been some drama around the Mac Iterm2 terminal app. The author released a "major release" with AI features - and strangely got a pile of negativity. Now he's making it a plugin but I don't think he's happy:

Anyone got suggestions of good alternative mac terminal apps? For folks in "technically incompetent" organisations or who "hate AI"?

I should note that normally I have a lot of sympathy for open source maintainers dealing with grumpy users.
If it has been "I've listened to feedback, I don't agree that this is a huge thing but I can see how opinions differ" that'd be fine.
But insulting users with legitimate concerns? That's a huge nope for me

Since it’s a thing right now:
I am a senior career Linux sysadmin. I’ve been immersed in Linux since 1994, and a nerdy IT nerd longer than that.
I currently run Windows on both my personal and work PCs, by choice.
It’s not a simple choice and it’s definitely not a political choice. I could afford Mac hardware if I chose, and I have been All The Way down the Linux Desktop wormhole on multiple occasions.

It's funny, on joining my new job I chose a Mac over Windows for precisely the same reasons.

Not because either is "better" but because for me, OSX involves less tinkering than Windows; almost all the things I want just work.

Which I suspect is a mostly familiarity - all my windows knowledge is now so dated I have no idea how to do basic things the "right" way any more.
