I guess macOS' window management is bad enough that treating it as a pile of paper is the only way to manage.

- hombre_fatal 6y agoI don't see how alt-tabbing through maximized windows on macOS is different from Windows and Linux like the OP is suggesting. Though I do keep my browser at half-width on my ultrawide monitor because it's somewhat of an exotic/untested aspect ratio for websites. Also any power user that cares will use a tool like Divvy on macOS for arranging windows with hotkeys.
- t-writescode 6y agoFor one, if you have multiple max-size windows of a single application in Mac OS X, alt-tab doesn't go between those windows. command-tab does. Alt-tab goes between applications
- fiblye 6y agoI find Spaces/Expose/Mission Control (or whatever they call it these days) way more comfortable than dealing with Windows. I especially like that if I hide a window, it doesn't pop up when using Mission Control. Opening the Windows equivalent shows me every window, even stuff I minimized/hid. It feels cluttered.
