As soon as a tool adds pricing, price increases or adds AI that's when it begins to be enshittified. Why does this happen mostly?
Yep, out of precaution i've never used their sync infrastructure, which I guess was reasonably cheap to run, but the moment you add LLMs to the mix it is obvious that they are in for the free VC money and are soon going to need a lot of investment to keep the lights on.

#42Hmm might be great for some. I’m a Unix philosophy guy, one tool for one job. So far atuin was fine to be a better search history. Now it might be time to look for simpler alternative. Any suggestions? (I’m on zsh)

#43atuin ai kinda reminds me of https://github.com/Myzel394/zsh-copilot (yes, that's by me :P)
And reminds me of my take: https://github.com/micahbf/halp Excited to use atuin ai though, especially as it gets more features.

It’s optional- you can choose to opt in or not.
Its also the Repo. There's a lot of AI-guided commits. I'm all for using AI in a reliable and safe environment, but letting Claude steer just leads to garbage

what does zellij offer that tmux doesn't? I love tmux and haven't had a reason to switch for a while, but have heard these new Rust based terminal tooling get really popular.
A ton more conflicting keybindings. I switched away from tmux a year or so ago due to one crash I kept getting, but thinking of going back. Really miss the simplicity.

#46Why does every tool on the face of earth try to add AI features ? Good tools are simple and orthogonal. If you want AI, there's already plenty of other tools doing it probably better. I'm overall fairly disappointed by this announcement. This IMHO doesn't bode well

#47The PTY proxy looks pretty neat! Excited to give that a try. Losing some of the scrollback was a minor nuisance that I kind of lived with until now.

I tried atuin and then switched back to fzf[0]. It's less features but that's not necessarily a negative. [0] https://github.com/junegunn/fzf

If all you need is basic splits, sessions, and some simple templates/layouts (and like the convenience of knowing that tmux is widely available, and often installed by default) then you're fine to stay on tmux. Zellij can do things like floating windows, contextual keybinding guidance (helps learn everything that can be done), and a more complex layout schema. You can disable all the UI eye-candy and switch to tmux-s…
