I have 10 virtual desktops, accessible with the keyboard shortcut Super+[0-9].
I essentially use it as a faster alternative to tab switching, by grouping types of applications in different desktops.
- My main text editor can always be reached with Super+1.
- Most of my browser windows are at are Super+2 (tab switching between multiple windows)
- Super+3 is has my terminal sessions
- Super+4 has my dashboards and things like Jupyter notebooks
- Super+5, Super+6 don't get used that much
- Super+7 is for media - cmus, Spotify, etc
- Super+8 is for Zotero and papers I am reading, as well as ebooks and such
- Super+9 is for my email client
- Super+0 is for my social apps, such as those stored in a Rambox-like, Element, cwtch, Signal, and others.
I haven't bothered with any automatic grouping, and I can easily send a given window to a given desktop with Super+Shift+[0-9].
This isn't as deep as what some power users do. But it saves me a lot of keystrokes, and helps me feel organised.
