For multitasking, this tool has helped me a lot: https://alt-tab-macos.netlify.app/ https://alt-tab-macos.netlify.app/. Though I still can't figure out why some apps don't work in split view, the window manager just says "Not available in this split view". Split view has always worked in Windows no matter what the app.
- charlie0 4y agoSwitching windows is just one thing regarding multitasking though. Are there others regarding multitasking? One thing I have found for myself is that the keyboard shortcuts on Mac tend to be more uniform among all the different programs. I've also found Command much easier to use than Ctrl on Windows. I say that as a Windows user, who went to Mac as primary device, and now splitting Windows/Mac roughly 50/50. The shortcut schemes on Mac makes me a far better multitasker than on Windows (with that one caveat being switching between multiple windows of the same app, which I agree, is counter-productive).
- aljgz 4y agoInteresting. Can you elaborate on why CMD is more productive than Ctrl? On windows, usually it's easy to guess what modifier would be assigned to a task. But on Mac, I only need to use memory. In vscode (well that's not an Apple program, but is my main application), Opening documents is CMD+P, but opening terminal is ctrk+backtick. Now, options, is it CMD or Ctrl + comma? You have to know specifically.
