A thing I only realized after switching to a tiling/dynamic window manager (i3), as a tmux user, is that tmux complects two things:

  * persistent pty sessions
  * pty multiplexing 
So even after switching to i3, tmux was still useful to me for the persistent sessions, to keep certain long-running programs running. I just stopped using the multiplexing. But then I learned about abduco [1] which, like dtach, only deals with terminal session management. I haven't looked back since.
