I, for one, love tmux. But I hate it with the stock settings on a fresh machine. Having to use keyboard shortcuts to switch between windows is especially annoying. I have this in an ansible playbook I run on all new machines to set tmux up nicely (I also use ohmyzsh and atuin, but that’s another story): - name: Install custom tmux configuration become: yes become_user: ubuntu git: repo: https://github.com/gpakosz/.tmux.git dest: /home/ubuntu/.tmux/ - name: Set up custom tmux configuration become: yes become_user: ubuntu shell: | cd /home/ubuntu/ ln -s -f .tmux/.tmux.conf cp .tmux/.tmux.conf.local . - name: Set up further tmux customizations become: yes become_user: ubuntu blockinfile: path: "/home/ubuntu/.tmux.conf.local"

I use a tiling window manager and use tmux - just because I can tile windows doesn't negate my use of tmux. I have a single window that is all of my terminals - which to me is much easier to manage than a load of random terminals all over the place. Sessions are named, and windows are named, and I have F1-F8 mapped to load the corresponding window, F10 brings up a list of sessions, and F9 toggles between the last 2 sessions. Mine is based on https://github.com/gpakosz/.tmux but customised for F keys, status bar, mouse etc
