How do you find the relevant window? Alt-tabbing or searching by name sounds like more work than “I know which workspace it’s in, so I just go to it (1 keystroke for me) and then find the window” (much less alt-tabbing when there are only a couple of windows in a workspace vs. dozens in a no-workspace arrangement)
- Gigachad 4y agoI find that using multiple workspaces makes it harder for me to find the window. Normally I just trigger the activities overview in gnome and it shows all the windows. If I use workspaces, it only shows what’s on my current workspace and I have to either search multiple times or remember which workspace things are on and dedicate to a scheme.

- pluc 4y agoPengaru mentioned MRU in the replies and that's largely how I find the relevant window, but instinctively knowing where the relevant app will find itself in the MRU using alt-tab. Either that or I just click on it in the taskbar, I never have more than 5-6 windows open. If I really need to be productive, I'll tile them up.
