This is an application for people who install webmin and/or a full desktop to remote into on a server machine.
But yeah, ssh, tmux, rsync/rclone should be enough for anyone competent.
Meh. Tried tmux and went back to screen
To each their own. I think we agree in principle.
Tried zellij yet? The first one I stuck with and didn't stop using again after a few days cause I can't just remember key binds.
Not yet, my WM largely negates the need but in the case of WSL I do use screen. I’ll see if it’s available easily with Ubuntu and try it out.
Thank you
I'm actually almost never using it locally, but find it very useful in remote ssh sessions. There I often don't want to lose whatever task just cause I disconnect.
Ah, unfortunately the systems I am forced to use are old enough that that use case is impossible.
