   So, how are people actually using Pi? Here I am with Claude Code and Codex in a terminal like a caveman.

      And you're probably more productive than the people using Pi. Although you'd be even better off using a GUI agent multiplexer of some kind rather than juggling terminal tabs.

      I love open source. I love the terminal. I spent the last 20+ years in a terminal w/vim every single day, and then claude/codex TUIs, and yet I care more about my own productivity so I don't use any of that now.

         What do you use

            Personally I use gh copilot in vscode and make new worktrees when I want parallel agents that are both going to write code.

            For research, planning, figuring out bugs, etc I usually don’t bother creating the worktree until I’ve decided on the implementation.

            I’m sure there’s better workflows and software, but all I’ve got for work is gh copilot and Claude enterprise. I like copilot better than Claude for the most part.

               I was under the impression that GitHub Copilot was much more expensive because you're always paying API rates?

                  it's expensive as hell
