Oh, I like the fake Spaces approach.

I have considered trying that by minimizing windows, but would never get around to it.

Tiling is doomed to sadness on macOS, because of lack of APIs. But this is probably the most performant approach.

Have used yabai, but only for moving windows and focus-follows-mouse. Not for tiling. Because flaky (not yabai’s fault).

Thanks nikitabobko.

Looking forward to trying it as soon as I figure out how to mod alt-tab to ignore all the windows (from every fake workspace) in the corner.

Also, linked in the docs, JankyBorders. Nice.

I get around that by using the Stack and I flip between windows with alt+h/alt+j

Command+Tab is global window switch. The ones above are for "local" switching in the context of the workspace.

Oh, I know. I use sway — and greatly miss alt-tab (windows-style alt-tab), when I do.

Not linux-primary right now.

I can remember my linux-style stacking commands in order to try it.

But I would want to fix my alt-tab at some point.

Note: my sway (or mac) usage is basically two vertical windows or stacks of panes on a laptop screen. So a pretty simple setup.
