If you are hoping to new machines every time then sure.
But lets be honest, thats a minority.
I don't know kitty in specific, but wezterm ie. can connect to target via SSH, start daemon of itself there and actually work better then tmux, because it's controlled from the client (where the gui runs), but with all the tmux upsides.
And yes, it's not as portable as tmux (simply because its not as popular), but again, in majority of the situations the setup required is really not that much.
Especially if you would spend that time on tmux config anyway.
- sweeter 2y agoKitty does this as well. They have a section on ssh-integration on the wiki. I personally love it. I can use the kitty multiplexer remotely and I can copy and paste from local to remote. So at least he does implement a solution/alternative. The thing I like about tmux and zellij is persistence and the "task-runner" nature of them. Its great for managing sessions and running things in the background. Though I do hate how they also break a lot of features that I do like about terminals.

- em-bee 2y agoall of the tmux upsides? including detach and reattach to a running session? i'd love a nice gui for tabs, but i really use tmux for its ability to survive gui crashes locally and network disconnects when running remotely.
- Xeamek 2y agoAs I said, on connections it's spawns a daemon on target machine that will do exactly that - keeping the State despite clients disconnection
- em-bee 2y agooh, sorry. i didn't read your comment close enough. that actually sounds interesting. i'll have to take a look. although i prefer mosh over ssh because it is more reliable with the slow connection that i have. however if wezterm can reconnect like mosh that might work. thanks.
