Windows terminal is a shit show. The dev blogs posts are all about useless features such as image background while fundamentals like unicode input are still broken.

My mouse would start lagging whenever I “moused” over an active Windows terminal window, in spite of running a brand new system with a 3070 GPU etc. Did they ever manage to fix that?
That's probably some combo of:

Like Windows Notepad. I suspect it was never designed for anything more than trivial cases, and then it never got requirements overhaul later in subsequent versions of Windows.
I was under the impression that Windows Terminal is a recent greenfield project.
Yea. Microsoft has two terminals. Command Prompt (cmd.exe) which is the default that comes with Windows, has been around forever and basically never seen a significant update. And the new Windows Terminal which is the recent greenfield project that only works on recent versions on Windows 10 and doesn't ship with Windows by default (yet).
Unfortunately people often get the two confused when talking about "the windows terminal".
