Perhaps. I love tmux for multiple terminals in one SSH connection, but I'm a big fan of tabbed browsing, tabbed file explorers, etc., so having tabs in my terminal just makes sense. I could probably get used to tmux handling tabs and split panes all the time.

Yeah a terminal tab maps 1:1 with a tmux window. Same type of feature. You can also use the mouse and / or keyboard to navigate between everything.

Only downside is you can't (easily) map Ctrl+Tab to switch between tmux Windows. Doesn't matter much if you spend your life in the terminal, but for occasional users consistency between applications is important.

What do you use/recommend for tabbed file explorer?

[neilsimp1]

I mean I use Dolphin because I'm a KDE user, but I believe it's possible in Windows with the Set UI [0]. There are third party Windows file explorers but I don't have any experience with them.

If you don't mind the command line with WSL there's ranger. It has tabs (but you also have access to tmux too if you use it).
