    I'm a simple man, i see a new typecraft video, i click on it

    Killer feature for me was when I was learning bare metal Kubernetes and had to manually build 3 identical worker nodes. : setw synchronize-panes will send key presses to all panes in the window. Repeat the command to turn it off. I had 3 panes each ssh'd onto a node all receiving the same commands. It was glorious - but nobody seems to talk about that feature!

    Tmux has changed my entire code experiences and I have only been using it for a 2 or 3 weeks! Great video!

    This was great for the 1st video of a series, massive respect for que quality of the content and the editing, I am subscribed for life. Hope I get to see how all of the tmux power can come to life in a work environment (: Cheers from Mexico City
  • @nammant
    Found this video right before going to sleep and got that quite interesting and already tryed every step with you. Thank you, can't wait to look more videos.

    Usually I feel like a lot of linux, techy and nerdy stuff is explained like poop, with very low quality quality, editing and no mustache, you’re the exception, you’re amazing, keep your amazing work. You got a new subscriber

    I love this, I was just configuring my tmux yesterday on my linux workstation. I like it so much, especially when i have it setup with my favourite ide within the terminal whether its nvim or emacs. Keep it up, i would love to watch this on daily basis to learn new things with tmux to maximize its power
  • @PetrenkoAndrii
    I started using tmux occasionally about 3 years ago, just for session sharing. But your older videos about tmux made me coolest kid around the block :) I’ve even purchased bigger 4k screen to have everything I am doing collected together in tmux. Looking forward for the series, I know in your presentation style, this will be a good one! This particular video is amazing and refreshing as well. Helped to recheck what we know about this money making tool 😂
  • @RazoBeckett.
    Let's go! I was waiting for this video. To be honest, when you explain, I understand better. It helps me learn new things and use them. It was complex for me to understand tmux; watching other videos never worked for me. But when you explained it, it became much clearer to me.

    Being a tmux nerd and listening to another tmux nerd is life 🙌🏾🙌🏾after mastering tmix ( neovim & obsidian) should be on the list to master
  • @BrentMalice
    these are amazing. the kinda stuff primagens "how to be a nvim dev" just briefly skimmed over. u a great teacher too. perfect editing to highlight the important parts but not overshadowing the secondary information. fast enough to mostly hold my attention but slow enough to go over everything cya at 100k subs fam <3
  • @doraidsed3140
    Like your content, very clear explanations. Thaks for sharing your knowledge.
  • @aus10d
    Your educational content is so, so good. Thank you for covering this. Learned a lot
  • @slim_mike
    Thanks nerd!, I got to you because I'm learning nvim, and now I'm using tmux because of you!
  • @ericlindell3777
    Great vid! Looking forward to more! Are you also covering something like sessionizer?
