      Stay off Tmux for a couple of months and try again. I’ve been through that exact scenario. It doesn’t feel intimidating, but you still need to brush up.

      One thing that zellij does correctly is discoverability. You don’t need to even read their documentation to become productive.

      Zellij is also reaching feature parity with tmux. But its development seems to be accelerating. Zellij might become the dominant multiplexer soon.

        For me, this is it. I would have to learn tmux. I tried, but there’s so much to remember. Zellij just has all that at the bottom - and as you use it, you start remembering!

      I haven’t used tmux at all but I did look into it once. I have found zellij easy to learn so far while I had the impression that tnux would e lbe a hit difficult to learn.

      Also zellij has footing panes (not sure if tmux does)

      Perhaps not alot, but it will save someone new from having to learn an entire set of obtuse modal keybinds.
