I’m using windows/wsl My previous workflow : multiple virtual desktop, each desktop is per repository/project. Each desktop had vertical split - on the left a terminal with multiple tabs (commands, coding agents, instance running, etc.) and vscode on the right for manual edits, diffs. Problems : had to reopen all instances on windows reboot worktree management is not that smooth, unless you create a virtual desktop for a worktree Now, after seeing the hype around terminal multipliers, I’m trying to adopt using herdr My new workflow: one virtual desktop, one terminal instance with herdr, a workspace per project/repo with multiple tabs. Multiple instances of vscode on the same desktop. Porblems: rendering and performance is not as smooth as in a standalone terminal random rendering, scrolling, hot keys issue which stop working some shell features/plugins (I use fish/stargate) either don’t work or randomly stop working later, like autosuggestions having multiple vscode instances on the same virtual desktop creates some mess, and you have to use a single desktop so that they are next to coding session terminal The only benefit I can see is that it remembers workspaces/tabs after reboot. But it doesn’t remember terminals sessions, and you have to start over in each terminal anyway. Many people say it is very useful as they see all coding sessions in one window and get notifications… but, how many these sessions you have in real life? I found it hard to manage more than 2-3 sessions in parallel - too much context switching which increase cognitive load. What do I do wrong? Ok, maybe some of my issues are caused by windows/wsl and on macos/linux it works better, but still, how do you use it?
