So ... my tmux lifestyle is objectively superior in this one respect. Excellent.

Yes, that's why all the cool kids switched to tmux 17 years ago. The only argument the screen camp had was "no serial port support in tmux". To which we answered something about a smaller more modern code base...

I found it incredibly slow, especially running Neovim. Zellij was missing super basic functionality, so I went back to screen.

A long time ago tmux was a little bit slower. But if you say that it's super slow for you now, then probably it's something to do with your config / setup.
