I use Tilix, which is imo one of the best VTE based terminal emulators for Linux. If I create an Ubuntu 16.04 image on DigitalOcean, connect to it via SSH and then configure a new user (as below), everything is fine. I get highlighted the path, directories, username, etc.:

useradd -m username
passwd username
usermod -a -G sudo username
su username

But if I do the same with an 18.04 image the highlighting doesn't work and also autocomplete and keyboard arrow, etc don't work. Why is this? And how can I change the behavior so that it works like in 16.04?

EDIT: bash completion is installed and auto-complete also works if I am logged in as root (even though without the highlighting). But as soon as I su username autocomplete is also gone
