A reasonable followup question why wouldn't one have an ad blocker installed?
Because it's how 99% of websites get their funding, allowing them to survive. Why have an adblocker installed when you can avoid the sites with obnoxious adverts?
I'm wondering how others have solved this problem, if they have at all.

Say you want to attach to session 0 (use `tmux list-sessions` to see available sessions). A trick I've found is not attaching to that session, but starting a new session sharing all underlying windows. The model in tmux is [session]->[windows]->[panes], but something I did not realize until recently is that [session] can be multiple. So rather than `tmux attach -t 0` use `tmux new-session -t 0`, allowing you to inter…
Is this a feature in 2.0? It doesn't seem to work for me - I still see a large part of my terminal window filled with the dots, since the other session's terminal window is much smaller.
For those who are just getting started with tmux: I advise looking around others' .tmux.conf files for some sensible settings. Like Vim, Tmux ships with a lot of powerful features disabled by default. My absolute favorite has to be binding a hotkey to opening URLs in the current window [0]. See [1] for a small demo I just recorded. To get started, here's my current config: [1] [0]: https://github.com/jbnicolai/tmux/b…
Here's mine: https://github.com/olalonde/dotfiles/blob/master/tmux.conf One tweak I can't live without is having the same key bindings to seamlessly switch between tmux panes and Vim split windows. ( https://gist.github.com/mislav/5189704 ) TPM is also really useful for managing tmux plugins https://github.com/tmux-plugins/tpm . My prefix key is Ctrl-Space. It's very convenient to press on the keyboard, I'm surprised…
I don't like having togo into copy mode.
Does anyone else wish tmux were modal like vim, ie. without a "leader" key? My conf file has a ton of custom key bindings for window / pane management, and I'd love for them to go away or become simplified by simply dropping into a "window management mode". Likewise, I'd like the command mode to stay open until I close it. I have some scripted hacks to do this, but it's nowhere near what I'd expect from true modality…
Yes! Probably my biggest workflow pipe dream since getting some fluency in vim is to be able to drop into an "outside mode". I've cobbled something vaguely modal together for bspwm with abuse of shkd, so a lot of the binds map similarly, but like your solution it's far from ideal. As for "Why would you want this?" For me, the straightforward answer is "modes are modular". A core concept in vim is that your input can…
Yes, yes they do[1]. Some people (not me) are vehemently, religiously opposed to "modes":
"To promote his preference, as of 2010, Tesler equipped his Subaru automobile with a personalized California license plate with the license number "NO MODES". Along with others, he has also been using the phrase "Don't Mode Me In" for years, as a rally cry to eliminate or reduce modes."

I was thinking exactly this, I just logged a bug for them to move the project: https://sourceforge.net/p/tmux/tickets/192/
Aaaaaaaaaaaaand it's closed. Without comment.
Basically, it looks like the developers don't see any benefit to migrating that outweighs the cost of a migration. [1]
There is a GitHub mirror [2] maintained by, I think, one of the developers, but they don't accept pull requests.
It's interesting to note that, for such a popular project like tmux, there are so few contributors. [3] Five, to be exact.
Maybe that's an artifact of how the mirroring to GitHub works (perhaps the commit authors aren't translated correctly?), but I suspect it's more an artifact of an outdated contribution process and tooling.

Well, no need to really look forward... You already have every one of those capabilities with Emacs. >you could put together anything from a simple test/editing environment to a full-blown IDE. People already do this with Emacs.
Last time I tried ansi-term and friends (not that long ago), it was very slow and struggled rendering my fairly vanilla (by some people's standards) shell prompt. Neovim's terminal emulation, by contrast, is a very great deal faster and can run Neovim inside itself with no discernible issues.

Why not use C-a?
I also use C-s on my local machine because: 1. I can still use C-a with readline (go to first character) 2. If I ssh and then use screen, I can use C-a to navigate my remote screen and C-s to navigate my local tmux. 3. C-s is closer to C-a then other letters on my keyboard.
C-s will suspend the terminal on some platforms. (Which can be resumed by C-q.)
It makes me sad to see a respectable piece of open source software hosted on this site with its intrusive advertising practices such as ads with fake "install" buttons on the download page. What is the advantage of using Sourceforge these days when github and bitbucket are free for open source?
All I see after clicking download is a direct link to the file, which is in fact just a .tar.gz.
