I'm new to fate, why does everyone like Jalter than say Jeanne or Salter?
Depends on how you approach it from. You could either give a generic response by saying that Jalter is a gothic waifu character which is more appealing, and you'd be right, she is definitely supposed to be that. But now for a concise response:
Jormal made her debut in Fate Apocrypha, which is one of the lesser popular entries of the franchise due to the poor writing and handling of characters despite having an interesting concept. Jormal wasn't exactly popular, since she was written primarily to benefit the MC, who also wasn't all that popular, causing her to become bland and boring as the story progressed. Some people will often refer to her as bootleg Saber. The problem is that Jormal's popularity saw an increase mostly due to her rivalry with Jalter.
Jalter, on the other hand, wasn't really all that popular from the start, since she made her debut in one of the least popular story arcs. However, this changed when it was revealed that she wasn't really an evil version of Jormal, and since then, Jalter's arc has all been about her becoming her own distinct person from Jormal. What solidified her popularity was the role she had in Summer 3 event and the Shinjuku story arc, which are often cited to be the best events/story arcs in the game. Even if it's contrived, Jalter goes through a whole deal of character development. Now here's the thing I don't think people take into consideration, despite all the whacky tsundere stuff we get to see from her, she's a complex character with an incredible backstory and the concept of her being this vengeful aspect of Jormal is fascinating and relatable; her hatred for the Church, her countrymen and those who betrayed her as she was burned at the stake. Unfortunately, her backstory is overshadowed, if not, forgotten by her later appearances to such a point that she barely comes around as a serious character.
There's no doubt that Jalter's popularity is gonna see a resurgence with the release of the new Fate game, and since she will most likely take on a serious role in the story, I'm stoked to see how they handle her.

hey, I was wondering what would be your opinions on a salter x jalter ship?
I think these two white women should kiss and have nasty gay sex, maybe go through traumatic experiences together and go have dates specifically in fast food restaurants idk
