I'll take a rust tmux if it runs on Windows. I'm currently kind of stuck on Windows and I didn't realize how much tmux means to me until Bill took it away :(

Yep I've been doing this since WSL 1 was available, it's rock solid.

My dotfiles at https://github.com/nickjj/dotfiles have an install script to automatically get everything (including tmux w/ plugins) set up on Debian, Ubuntu, Arch Linux or macOS. This includes native Linux and WSL 2 support.

WSL is not Windows. Unless you can work entirely in WSL (and if I could I'd just use Linux) having to juggle fake filesystems, incompatible symlinks, two PATHs, three shells is a bit much.
