Show HN: Kaden Terminal – Bloat / AI Free Terminal for Linux

Developer glitcher255 released Kaden Terminal, a fork of Warp for Linux that removes AI, cloud, and sign-in features while adding clipboard support and configurable keybindings. The terminal, available as an AppImage and source on GitHub, addresses the lack of proper text selection in Linux terminals by wrapping the shell in a remappable text input field, with zero telemetry and no network requests.

Kaden is a Terminal Emulator and fork of warp with clipboard support and configurable keybindings, I made Kaden because every other Linux terminal lacks proper text selection. It's impossible to select user input with a single hotkey on Linux, requiring mouse use and awkward multi-step shortcuts in order to do basic copy and paste. This was frustrating to deal with, until I found warp, which wraps the shell in a remappable text input field, its the only terminal on Linux that does this. Unfortunately, it's full of sign in buttons, AI and cloud integration prompts everywhere. "Hideous" - I thought. But I used it anyway - until one day they released the source code so I forked it and made Kaden. - No AI features, drive, sign-in and cloud prompts. - Local zero telemetry, network requests or auto-updates. - Modular code-base for faster development and compile times. - Contextual copy/kill bindings to ctrl-c by default. I would love for you to use, test and give feedback on how it works and does not for you, you can find a compiled AppImage and the source code on my GitHub here: https://github.com/glitcher255/Kaden-Terminal https://github.com/glitcher255/Kaden-Terminal I will be here to answer any questions or feedback you have, so feel free to ask any, thank you.
