- Praise: Agent-specific multiplexers like herdr make it a breeze to keep track of agent statuses, saving time and effort when managing multiple tasks.
- Praise: The automatic session management features in tools like herdr eliminate the hassle of setting up tmux, which can be a real pain for some users.
- Praise: Users appreciate the glanceable agent status in herdr's sidebar, making it easy to monitor progress without cycling through multiple tmux panes.
- Concern: Many feel that these new tools don't offer enough over traditional multiplexers like tmux, leading to skepticism about their real added value.
- Concern: Herdr is seen as lacking in features compared to tmux, which disappoints power users who rely on its advanced capabilities.
