It is hard to switch windows with mouse in vanilla GNOME 3

• kaba0 4y ago
  Windows or desktops? For windows, why not just alt+tab? Gnome really prefers having multiple desktops with close-to-fullscreen windows on each. And super+mouse wheel is fantastic on desktop machines, but the best experience to me is on a laptop with 3-finger swipes (because it is fast and doesn’t make me wait an animation a la osx. Which is funny because their swipe gestures are spot on on the iphone)

    I found it more Intuitive to control my computer with mouse instead of keyboard shortcuts, as most regular user do.

  I rarely do. I have 3 monitors and usually just place one window per monitor. When I do switch, it is easy, flip to hot corner, pick window, done.

    As you said, it takes two actions to switch windows in GNOME, but only one action in Windows (clicking an icon on taskbar).
