I've always wondered what a tiling window manager provides over tmux. This isn't a rhetorical question, I've never used a tiling window manager. Anyway, a separate space with full-screened iterm2 + tmux on macos is my preferred way to work. I can swipe left to check slack, browser and then swipe right to go back to my terminal.

A window manager manages windows. All of them. Tmux can't manage your PDF viewer or Firefox windows.
