From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

I really enjoy the "maximize windows go to their own workspace" thing that macOS does, it combines really nice with swiping workspaces with the trackpad.
There's a gnome extension that mimics this but it's kinda buggy and feels like a hack.
Oh gawd, I hate that (sorry 😅). But so long as it was just an option, even a default one, that would be fine with me.
Yes an option is best! Currently I have it with an extension although it's kinda broken
I know not everyone likes it either. I only like it on my laptop, where I use the trackpad to switch between workspaces. It's more clunky on a desktop
