I did not switch because Bash is bad. I love Bash and respect it. Bash is stable, everywhere, script-friendly, and still the safest common denominator when I touch unknown Linux boxes.</p> <p>I switched because my daily workflow changed, and Bash stopped fitting that workflow.</p> <h2 id="the-bash-pain-point-that-finally-made-me-move">The Bash pain point that finally made me move</h2> <p>The biggest Bash pain point for me was history behavior across multiple terminals.</p>https://falcao.org/posts/tmux-vs-gnu-screen/Sun, 24 May 2026 22:00:00 -0300https://falcao.org/posts/tmux-vs-gnu-screen/<p>I ran GNU Screen for more than twenty years. It was one of the first tools I installed on every machine, right after vim and ssh. Screen kept long compilations alive through flaky connections, let me juggle IRC and tail logs on the same VT100, and never once lost a session I cared about. For a tool born in 1987, that is a remarkable track record.</p> <p>About fifteen years ago I switched to tmux. It was not because Screen broke. It was because tmux made me faster at work I was already doing, and then it kept getting better while Screen stood still. I have not looked back.</p>
