When I open many terminal sessions, top tabs become hard to read.
That is why cmux caught my eye. A left sidebar may fit the way I work better.
The problem is not terminal power
macOS Terminal is fine. iTerm2 is powerful. Warp feels modern.
But my current problem is organization. I want to see many sessions without remembering where everything is.
A left sidebar feels easier to scan
Horizontal tabs get crowded.
A vertical list can stay readable longer. That is the part of cmux that made me curious.
My current choice
I am not saying cmux is the best for everyone.
I am saying its structure matches the problem I feel now: too many terminals, not enough visibility.
