let's skip the part on idio-something of `tmux`, but the very much selling point of screen and tmux, among multiplexing, as support of detached state and being able to reattach later on.
Zellij seems to be targeted on local machine of end user (desktop, laptop) vs being used on server through ssh. Nothing bad about that of course, just this product is not for me.
It's great! For someone who wants a terminal multiplexer but a) doesn't feel like learning all the idiosyncracies of tmux and b) is OK with adding some configs in toml — it's ideal.
The downsides are that it's not perfectly stable — maybe once a month I get a panic — and some terminal cobwebs aren't encapsulated — e.g. it's not possible to use "[" in key mappings.
