Story of a Linux User, Forced to use macOS

1

Rectangle

That said, Mac OS can be fixed with extensions, and I have a ton of them running to make my system workable. I use Rectangle (instead of magnet) to manage and tile windows. I also have the aptly named program called alt-tab to switch between windows, not apps. Gnome does this too, but at the very least it has sub-menus for each window of each app. On mac os, if you have two finder windows open for example, you can't cmd+tab between them like you can on Windows, KDE, or most Linux DEs. There's also canihaxshortcuts which allows me to run any terminal command through a keyboard shortcut.Finally, I have Karabiner to remap shortcuts like command+c to ctrl+c and the like. There's also smaller programs which allow me to turn off mouse acceleration, or notunes, which blocks iTunes or Apple music from running.
