I'm a terminal person and would love to try new things. But I just spent a few minutes on their page and have no idea why I would try to use it.

Can anyone help me learn why this over, say, kitty?

It's not an alternative to kitty; it's an alternative to tmux or GNU screen.

I believe it's positioned to be more user-friendly than tmux but I've already got things memorised with tmux and it wasn't bringing anything new to the table, so I didn't try zellij for more than a few days.

I feel the same. If someone would ask me for a recommendation I would point them toward Zellij but if you've been using tmux for years it's probably not worth it.

The modal nature of Zellij is nice though.

I like tmux better as well (muscle memory) but AFAIK you need tmuxinator for preconfiguring layouts?
