I can't write a ~ in my macOS Terminal with Option + N anymore

When I press Option + n in my macOS Terminal, I write a ":" instead of a "~". This only happens in the Terminal app. In iTerm or any other program, this doesn't happen. How can I fix this? I want to write a "~" when I press Option + n.

Solution

    1. Open the settings of the Terminal app (`Command` + `,`)

    2. Profiles

    3. Go to "Keyboard" tab

    4. Uncheck "Use Option as Meta key"
