This seems like a very baroque alternative to tmux and ssh
- rektide 5y agoLet's consider: I'm at my parents, or a friends house. I need to log in to do something. My options are: A) download a terminal emulator + ssh application onto their computer & run that, flooding the screen with some unknown terminal application. B) opening a web page & logging in to a Zellij or TermKit or whatever session. Which do you think will seem more baroque to them? The web is an obvious, much improved way to do almost all software. It's online, universally accessible. A lot of stuck, old-fashioned-thinking in this thread. I'm a ssh + tmux (or more often ssh + dtach/vim) user myself, but it's clear to me this has serious disadvantages, that it's not nearly as accessible, as on tap as it could be.
