From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

I use Yakuake most of the time. It's a Quake-style drop down terminal thats always available. I find it to be convenient for the vast majority of the terminal stuff I do.
When I need to edit long files or something, tho, I usually use Kitty, since the quake-style terminals tend to get in the way sometimes lol. It's not really a unique thing to Kitty or anything, but I like how you can split one window into multiple terminals.
