I still use terminator out of habit, but I never tile it anymore. Terminator can't tile my browser windows along with my terminal windows, and interleaving separate shortcuts (and window groups) defeats the purpose of tiling

Browser -> fullscreen. End of problem. Tabs in the browser window are the switch point.

Terminator isn't for everyone. But it can be for anyone.

I'm not sure I follow. Are you saying you always make the browser fullscreen? Tbh I think you might be missing the purpose of a tiling window manager

Oh sure, I get the point of tiling window managers .. its just that I rarely need to leave Terminator for anything besides the odd web document or so - and that context switch is, for me, quite helpful.

But I set up Terminator in full tiled rig for everything else, and rarely every leave it. Its a delight.
