something i find so annoying with so many terminal multiplexers is that they're all almost perfect for using as a daily driver but every single one has some issue that makes it not possible to use properly
wezterm is nearly perfect with native keybinds, fantastic protocol support, good config, and a built-in multiplexing feature that works across ssh. unfortunately, that multiplexing feature is fully broken to the point of being unusable! if you detach and reattach, there's any number of issues that'll happen that mean having to reopen split panes, defeating the point of any of it. the command pallet is also a neat feature but impossible to navigate
zellij is really cool, actively developed, has an interesting plugin system, an expansive config, and real nice status bars telling you what keybinds you can use. but! those keybinds basically make it unusable. it spans most of the ctrl/alt keyboard space, which is exactly where, say, and editor might also go. it seems to have had kitty protocol support added at some point, but that doesnt work at all, and enabling kitty support in nushell while using zellij breaks everything
tmux is. well, it's tmux. it's solid, performant, scriptable, and pretty much abandonware. sure, it might have some updates to keep it working, but it will pretty much never get any real new features, and the ones it does have are kinda limited. you can only open 1 popup at a time? sure, i guess that works most of the time, but man that's an annoying limitation. oh and kitty protocol support? yeah right go fuck yourself actually
oh and that's it. on top of this there are basically these 3 options for detachable multiplexing (that works over ssh), and all others would end up just being inferior versions really. as to what i use currently? it's tmux in wezterm. wezterm is actually a good terminal, it's just the advertised 'multiplexing' features are basically non-functional, and tmux is good enough that is actually works, if a bit annoyingly
honestly, i want to work on wezterm and fix all the multiplexing shit so i can use it, but it's a massive project so i have no idea where to start. maybe i should work up the courage to ask some people and get stuck in, but that's anxiety and a lot of time
ugh
ID: Gif of a falling rain effect on a terminal with the trans flag colors as a gradient in the background
Put this together with cmatrix and WezTerm in ~30 minutes to see if I could, so this is a real piece of UI I can spawn (though it's very cpu intensive as cmatrix's docs mention)
Seems like WezTerm has some weird built in transparency stuff that was clashing with picom and eating cpu because of it so disabling transparency there made everything run smooth (if you saw the trans terminal gif this was the real culprit of the choppiness, not cmatrix). So I'm switched over to WezTerm instead of Alacritty and its a lot better feature wise so far, built in multiplexing and way better support for customization along with tabs (still think it's odd Alacritty doesn't have tabs)
i have no idea how ive managed it, but i've found a bug in the kitty keyboard protocol in both alacritty and wezterm, but each slightly different. in alacritty, cmd-alt key inputs result in the alt being dropped, and in wezterm, cmd-shift key inputs result in both being dropped. each terminal handles the other case perfectly, but it's kinda funny that i've found the same bug but a bit different in each terminal lol

Straight up learning Lua just so I can configure Wezterm to the extent I want to...
(it's purely a bonus that Neovim utilizes Lua as much as it does)
I swear I can never let anything be easy for myself cuz I'm also still learning shell & command line to begin with & I downloaded rofi so I gotta read up on configuring that & I want to eventually switch over to a window manager like awesomewm or something until I'm comfortable enough to switch to hyprland under wayland. Ugh!!
So much reading ...
