I mainly use microsoft terminal now just beacuse it did a better job handling more of the font decorations (italic was one that I recall). My one gripe though is that it seems like microsoft terminal is still kind of slow at scrolling. If I accidentally grep for something that spews a lot to the screen, terminal is just plain hung up a bit. And for many of us - but not everyone? - control-space in emacs is just kind of broken. Long standing open issue for that one.


Have you turned on the new render engine in the microsoft terminal settings? It is marked beta but should be much faster.
