I don't get the point of tmux when you're running locally. We have a desktop environment whose entire point to to manage several instances on your screen already. Isn't it better than using a multiplexer?

I use a quake style terminal. Hit f12 and the terminal appears no matter what desktop is focused.

If I didn't use that I could definitely see just using my tiling window manager to manage splits.

But as it stands I want all my terminals to appear and reappear with one key combo.
