You know... I do something similar with a laptop to avoid having to get it out of the office. This is a great tip. I usually just open a new terminal though and ssh in, then attach to the tmux session. Great tip for sure.

I tried to avoid nested tmux sessions because I didn't know this but it still accidentally happened sometimes.

I run my bots like @hn in a tmux session on a server but I also open a tmux session by default on my computer. So I always had to make sure that I leave my local tmux session before I connect to my server and attach to the tmux session there.

But no more with this trick!

This feels like the advanced version of getting stuck in vim.

Some terminal frustrations

I didn't know that either but I NEVER use nested Tmux sessions.
