If I explicitly DON’T want sync between machines (my workflows are very machine specific), does atuin give me anything significant over my current fzf based C-r?

Atuin stores much more context than ctrl-r does - exit codes, command duration and directory, etc

Also has functions for filtering command search by directory

Being backed by SQLite tends to mean your history is more durable + is properly saved across shells too
