When using ScreenSharing on the Mac, CMD + Tab used to switch between apps on the local Mac (like using any other app). Which means, to switch apps on the remote Mac, you needed to use the Dock or some other method.
Then at some point a few years ago, CMD + Tab changed to switching between apps on the remote Mac, which also makes sense since you're working on the remote computer. But then you need another way to switch out of ScreenSharing on the local Mac.
Then for a year or two, it seemed random which computer's app switcher you'd yet.
Now it seems to take into account whether an actual window on the remote computer has been given focus since switching over to ScreenSharing or not. I can't quite place the logic, but it seems to do what I expect most of the time now.
I have no idea which of these scenarios was actually the bug and which is/was the feature.
