I’ve been seeing a few tmux and similar questions. Unless you really need session persistence (it is cool to shell into your laptop from the pooper and check up on Claude) it is much easier to use i3wm. It’s not often said that i3wm is easier that [xyz] but in this case it’s true. Pair i3wm with Arch and you have super lightweight distro, suitable for running in a VM with xrdp. True, no Wayland for you, but it beats working on Windows or WSL2. Non tiling terminal windows have been refined on i3 to the nth degrees. Pair that with nine workspaces and you can easily have 78 terminals minimum. Hint: let CC be your system admin. You can configure i3 and poly bar using natural language. It’s damn magical. More dangerously you can let Claude be your AUR operator via the AUR wrapper of your choice. Anyone care to comment on the prompt injection risks here? I tend to let Claude scan the diffs when updating, but the first install, I do it old school, like we all did six months ago. submitted by /u/time-always-passes
