I used to use Sway and I found tiling to be useful only when using multiple terminals. Tmux allows me to have tiling functionalities for terminals while having a full desktop environment for all other applications.

    Tiling at the window level makes much more sense and is technologically more sound than pushing windowing into the terminal output. Also see this comment by the creator of the kitty terminal emulator.

      Quite the interesting read, thanks for sharing!

      Is there any good alternative to tmux’s ability to create sessions and attach/detach from them? It gets installed on all my servers strictly for this ability.
