In what way are they more complicated? Granted screen is legacy, but tmux is just an executable on the server with sane defaults that Just Works OOTB.
- Shish2k 5y ago> In what way are they more complicated? When you change wifi networks you either have to remember to manually disconnect in advance, or wait for ssh to time-out the connection, then you have to create a new ssh connection, then you have to run an extra command to re-attach to the {screen/tmux} session you started earlier. It’s not insurmountably difficult work - but for the specific use-case of roaming across wifi networks, “doing a small disconnect and reconnect dance” with tmux is way more complicated and annoying than “open your laptop and all your connections are still working” with mosh.
