Same for me. Trackpad is my best friend for productivity. 4-fingers up (and also bottom-left hot corner) for Mission Control, top-left hot corner for desktop, 4-finger swipe left/right between spaces. I don't need anything more than that, and any app that offers more just becomes noise.

The trackpad gestures is a major reason that Mac is my primary OS while Windows is there when I have to use it. Even on my "desktop" Mac setup (which is really just my laptop in a dock) I have a full keyboard and the Magic Trackpad joined together with that tool from twelve south. Thinking about it more I feel like I just use Windows and Mac differently. Most of the time I am in full screen mode (so any windows is just a quick swipe to the left or right) and when I am not I have multiple desktops or I have split full screen mode. Plus using 3 monitors I really just don't find myself switching all that often. For me Windows feels like the worse management when I get used to what Mac has to offer.

  KDE is so close to getting the best of both worlds out-of-box for Linux users. I highly recommend it to anyone who has a Magic Trackpad-heavy workflow (and it's probably why KDE is the default on Asahi). - 4 finger swipe up is an overview for all desktops - 4 finger swipe down is an overview for all windows - 3 finger pinch does the MacOS-style desktop overview with your other desktops at the top All of the gestures are 1:1 with the trackpad, and are functionally very useful. It feels a little cobbled together in current builds, but I'm hoping it gets extra attention with KDE6: https://youtu.be/aBEsxTVRsEo?t=100 https://youtu.be/aBEsxTVRsEo?t=100

    I have been incredibly impressed by KDE in my recent uses of various Linux distros

    The nice thing about kde's version of "showing all window thumbnails" is that it's also searchable by typing
