Toot

Well I've fallen off the #tmux bandwagon in favor of just using #wezterm everywhere on the desktop for a couple months now and I've gotta say - zero regrets.

Tmux is an incredible tool, but the increase in cognitive load just wasn't worth it to me at the end of the day.

I still use and love it for server side work. Great way to persist working sessions, but for local stuff wezterm is making me incredibly happy :)

@feoh :AwkwardMonkeyLook: looks at his desktop background of tumx command reference sheets... Looks at wezterm

@Crazypedia Yeah I used both too!

Truth was I wasn't getting along terribly well with tmux. I never managed to fully get its odd text selection mode into my lizard brain, and the thing I REALLY wanted was a totally consistent set of keystrokes to get random access to tabs on all my platforms. WezTerm gives me that without the extra layers of configuration, including the every so often fight with Neovim around some yak shaving aspect of 256 color mode in the terminal :)

It's a GREAT tool and I love it dearly, I'm just not going to keep using it for local work where I'm getting zero out of it and it's an active impediment due to my own lack of ability to properly adopt it :)

@feoh

I think, I've got too much invested in motor memory to make the switch away from tmux to anything else at this point.

@lordbowlich Hey, it's a great tool. Don't do that :)

It's just not the particular amazing tool I need for local desktop work.
