Well, we meaning the most common kind of users, techies or newbies or luser all together: most part of humans today use a desktop like a browser bootloader, to a point someone have invented "the Chromebook" because of that, bringing also a limited kind of tab-based UI to the masses. Allow me a question: when you read your emails how many windows you use for that? Personally I use one (notmuch-emacs) or two (notmuch+a note), when you buy some stock do you use some full screen software (no matter if local or web) to see market data or you have many other windows shown at the same time? These are just two example of common activities. Of course if you are a frontend programmer you probably have much more stuff shown all your work time, but I bet none of them specially overlapping. That's is the "we" I, a bit arrogantly, use above... > I have colleagues who work in Mac full screen mode and I get motion sick watching them move between (and forget the location of) different apps and windows. I use Emacs/EXWM and well, yes, often I forgot some buffers/X11 apps open, but who care? The point is that anything is at my fingertips. I can easily create windows layout, or save-and-restore them, I can easy flip windows (mode-line-other-buffer bound to a keystroke) is MUCH more efficient than moving the mouse around.
