persisted.nvim VS possession.nvim

I found the following plugin https://github.com/olimorris/persisted.nvim.

persisted.nvim Has telescope extension and is highly configurable

Anyway I might add that in possession.nvim I took the approach of adding commands as I also feel that in many cases commands are more discoverable. On the other hand I don't like default keybindings as they often collide with my existing ones, I prefer setting them myself. Taking your example with nvim-possession: your config would look almost the same with commands (e.g. vim.keymap.set('n', 'sl', 'PossessionList')) so there is actually not much added verbosity.

possession.nvim

These are the main characteristics of linefly: * Small size (564 lines of Lua) * Very fast startup (almost as fast as the stock Neovim statusline) * Simple tab support (workspace tabs only, not buffer tabs) * Winbar support (works well in combination with global statusline) * Git branch detection * Git status via Gitsigns * Diagnostic status * vim-obsession and possession.nvim session support * Minimal jank as mode changes or write-status or line number changes; I don't like it when the filename moves one or two characters left or right when there are state changes. Not here. * Direct colorscheme support for these themes: moonfly, nightfly (both my own themes) along with: catppuccin, dracula, edge, embark, everforest, gruvbox,gruvbox-material, kanagawa, nightfox, sonokai and tokyonight. All other themes will use best-guess-fallback colors derived from the theme in effect.

Nice plugin! There is already a session manager called possession.nvim though.

I use a session manager known as possession. Possession lets me saves the session data in a json file and allows me to save custom data as well. It also provides hooks to add the custom data. A snippet like this will let me save the colorscheme for every session.

A bit less known than some of the others mentioned here, but I quite like possession.nvim. Pretty simple to use with nice and easy hooks using lua functions (before/after save and before/after load).

possession.nvim is yet another session management plugin. Main goal was to have more extensibility with a more Lua-friendly API. This could previously be done by storing Vim variables in the session file, but this would be tedious. possession.nvim achieves this by storing session data in JSON and providing user hooks that can store arbitrary data in the file and later use it when loading session.
