Tmux and mosh do entirely different things. In fact, I’d recommend you use them both together...

  Why the down vote? I have tried it many times and I’m posting as a unsatisfied mosh user. When it works, it does very beautifully. but folks have VPN and weird routers at work that just don’t interact well with UDP. So sticking with SSH and tmux is way more reliable for me.

    ssh is comparable to mosh; not tmux. Your comment mistakenly suggested that tmux replace mosh, whereas you actually meant to suggest using ssh to replace mosh (and tmux for saving state when ssh inevitably loses connection, which mosh handles more gracefully). It also did not justify or qualify the statement. So the non-sequitur in combination with an absolutism is probably why you saw downvotes. Here's a better way to express what I think you meant: "In UDP-hostile networks, mosh isn't suitable. For these situations, classic TCP ssh works well. To handle disconnects without losing your work, you can use GNU screen or tmux."
