What's the elevator pitch if I already know Screen and I can just open multiple windows of the terminal emulator?

What's the elevator pitch if I already know Screen and I can just open multiple windows of the terminal emulator?
- hibbelig 8mo agoI switched from screen to tmux due to rumor about the screen code base. Maybe not a good reason. But I don’t regret it, tmux works well. Just an honest opinion of someone who didn’t have skin in the game. Not sure if it helps.
- mystifyingpoi 8mo agoNo pitch - just use screen, most people use tmux in exactly the same way - open a few splits and switch between them with keyboard shortcuts.
- linhns 8mo agoTmux is better supported by other tools, such as fzf.
- fragmede 8mo agoThe people GP are talking about don't know about GNU screen either.
