From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

tui programs over ssh dimension mismatch (lemmy.world)

I'm experiencing an issue with commands that provide a tui interface like journalctl, systemctl and vim. It feels like terminal dimensions are not matching up somehow. And this issue is present only some times. On host I'm using Black Box and I tile my windows using pop os tiler. I'm also frequently scaling the font with ctrl + and ctrl - shortcuts. Remote sshd host is running Debian variables $LINES and $COLUMNS are set. bashrc files are in their default state.

How is this supposed to work? Isn't my terminal client sending new $LINES and $COLUMNS each time there is a change?
