This might come off as a naive question so pardon me in advance for my ignorance. I got Claude Max just last week and I have been using it in the MacOS Terminal app. I also used it in Zed and VS Code terminals and faced no issues. So what is the advantage of using it natively like this?

If you're going to live in the terminal, please do yourself a favor and replace Terminal.app with iTerm2, and replace bash with zsh.

I highly recommend trying fish, I wish I’ve switched earlier

+1 to fish, just efficient out of the box

iTerm2 is what we were using last month, now it's all about Kitty and Ghostty!

Kitty is much better than iTerm2 and while zsh is fantastic, fish is much easier to get started with and also very good.
