Hi. ok, I get that. Maybe something like A-left to move to next i3 window and A-S-left to move to next tmux window within an i3 window ? Perhaps a tiling window manager with multiple windows combined with tmux dividing some of those windows further into sub-windows isn't an ideal flow.

It's not i3/tmux, but a similar problem exists for vim/tmux, where the vim window management keys will conflict with tmux's.

And there's https://github.com/numToStr/Navigator.nvim that unifies the keys by letting the outside layer (tmux) always ask the inside layer (vim) before any movements.

Although that is indeed a lot more setup. But works pretty well.
