I actually regressed to putty.

I don't recall why exactly, I think there was some config option that was missing. More importantly though, tmux basically made the advantages of kitty obsolete.

I really need to start intentionally using tmux.

It's just so hard when my i3 bindings are right there, already learned, and they give me all of the screen management I need already - so tmux is only offering me the long-running, detachable session benefits. But even that would be good to learn...

tbh I'm going to be downloading and checking out both kitty and alacritty when I have time; if alacritty turns out to be worth it, it will be the kick in the tail I need to start in on tmux.

(Maybe this mobile graphics card that bluescreens if used at vanilla clock speeds will finally be useful for something!)

I need tmux because I work from a single putty session. Sadly, I think a lot of tmux value is gone when you start a separate session in each separate terminal window.
