Why is my tmux borked? (discuss.tchncs.de)

I've been trying tmux and followed a video that showcases and offers a prebuilt config for styling and plugins. Something happended (guess I did something wrong?) the styling broke and I decided I'll go bare bones and customize to my needs when needed instead of using preconfigured stuff. I deleted all configs and caches I could find with fzf and even reinstalled tmux, but still some broken styling is present and makes it unpleasent to work with. Some of my configs seem to be present even after uninstall, as the prefix is still C-Space instead of the default. There are some oh-my-zsh subfolders that contain tmux. I don't know if those have been there before and I also don't know, if I can delete them without breaking the next thing.

I'm on a MacBook and installed tmux via brew.

Gonna take a stab, because I don't have a Macbook within reach, but as it's a Unix, it's possible there's a tmux.conf file at:

~/.tmux.conf

which would persist through tmux installs as it's in the user's directory.

If you've already checked this out, um...

cheers,

I'll double check later or tomorrow, but afaik I deleted all files that contain tmux.

~/ .tmux.conf

is a hidden file, denoted by the "."

The file isn't there.
