Any particular reason to try herdr?

Really great remote ssh support. As of recently you can have ssh workspaces and local workspaces in the same nav structure.

It also supports building arbitrary custom UI plugins that can either run in a pane or background.

I prefer its hotkey setup over zellij. Only thing I prefer about zellij are the kdl layouts.

Yes ironically its AI selling points are not at all helpful for me. Just a solid multiplexer.

Appreciate the response. I would only really be interested in the multiplexer aspect, as well. The SSH support does sound pretty cool. I am a long time tmux user, and I have a pretty refined/customized set up that works really well for me. Was mostly just curious if there was anything major that I might be missing out on in these new platforms.

You can make the keybinds workbfor you and out of the box the user experience is awesome and fast. Mouse just works, its not an afterthought, sobdoes copy paste, etc.

Gotcha. I'm a long time tmux user, and I do have all of this working really well for me. I also realize that is due to years of refining my setup, and that better defaults/easier setup could be very valuable to a newcomer.
