Any time I read the Kitty docs I’m just in awe of everything its maker, Kovid Goyal, has built for it. Like, not just individual features but entire protocols, which other terminals then adopt.

I just wish remote session persistence was more of a priority. Goyal dislikes tmux (to put it mildly) but doesn’t suggest an alternative to those who do their work on remote servers. If I’m already organizing my work in tmux over ssh, I might as well do the same locally as well – which unfortunately means missing out on some of Kitty’s best parts.

Terminal developers Disliking tools people use to get work done

What is the support you are looking for? I'm probably missing how people use things like tmux and screen nowadays but I just reattach and navigate the tabs in the TUI. Are you looking for GUI integration?

Interesting but my assumption is something like Waybar or any of the numerous other bar specific applications are going to have more options and configurability.

I actually read about being able to set it as a wallpaper last night, but i didn't know you could also use it as a bar.
