Tmux + iTerm2 is a fantastic combo that takes all of Tmux's pwer and removes all the downsides.
I searched if anything else used Tmux's Control Channel on Linux to replicate iTerm2's features, and I'm sad that I found nothing.
(Frankly, it's kind of stunning to me that one terminal app on macOS has more useful features than the plethora of me-too terminals on Linux)

But more generally, I think the closest thing to iTerm2 on Linux is Tilix [1]. [1] https://gnunn1.github.io/tilix-web/ https://gnunn1.github.io/tilix-web/
- l33tman 7y agoWell on a related matter I've been searching for years for a Linux implementation of the bog standard terminal window on my Macbook, that persists scrollback and history for all open tabs during reboots etc. Such an enormously usable thing, why isn't that readily available on Linux?
