> Less awkward prefix keys > Probably the most common change among tmux users is to change the prefix from the rather awkward C-b to something that’s a little more accessible. I like the awkwardness of the default prefix key. I have almost never activated it by accident. > Intuitive Split Commands > Another thing I personally find quite difficult to remember is the pane splitting commands." to split vertically and % to split horizontally just doesn’t work for my brain. This is super intuitive to me. two ' in parallel means splitting horizontally. two ° split by an almost horizontal line means splitting vertically. > Easy Config Reloads I reloaded config over a few hundreds of times in my first week learning tmux a decade ago. I only reloaded config once in the last 5 years if I recall correctly. It's not something you should memorize. | ||

> I like the awkwardness of the default prefix key. I am 100% in agreement with you. It takes all of 5 seconds to add:
To your .tmux.conf on your local laptop (where I use tmux 99.99% of the time) - without worrying about conflicting on that once-in-one-year event where you start up tmux remotely. | ||
