I’ve always read that Gnome uses or expects you to use a pretty specific workflow.
Is there a blog post, video or something else that describes this workflow in detail?
Super key to toggle window management, start typing to search app, settings and files
Super + A key for app menu, start typing to search just like above
Recommended window per workspace: 2-4, move the rest of them to another workspace
Alt + Tab or Super + Tab to cycle window
Alt + Tilde or Super + Tilde to cycle between grouped window
Ctrl + Alt + Left/Right to switch workspace
Ctrl + Shift + Alt + Left/Right to move window between workspace
Super + Up to maximize, Super + Down to move to floating mode
Super + Left/Right to snap windows
You don’t need the rest of the keybindings as much (you could learn them, but I see no merit to it).
I’d say it seems way easier to use the touchpad (if available) to move between workspaces.
The same to open the app selection menu on the dock.
And since you use the different workspaces, I’d say get an extension to open one app in workspace 1, another in workspace 2 and so on.
That’s my workflow at least😇
If anything, GNOME is very self explanatory. Being next-to-zero-setup and intuitive are key design goals of GNOME. In contrast to KDE, you are more likely to be forced into a specific workflow rather than having to find one that suits you. Has its pros and cons.
