Trying Plasma for a bit to see how green the grass is as a longtime Gnome user. The last time I ran Plasma on my main desktop was version 5.11, I think? It’s been a while…

    For me, i made it so pressing Super+<number> switches to that workspace.

    Super+Tab to toggle overview (Super+W by default)

    And a hot corner, which is set to trigger almost instantly, to toggle overview.

      I remapped my side mouse buttons to switching workspaces, and I absolutely love it.

        Yea I did something similar on GNOME I mapped one of my mouse side buttons to be META and that way I could use it to access the overview and applications aswell as using side button + scroll wheel to switch workspaces.

        I love it so much I have implemented the same functionality In cosmic and would do the same in KDE.

      Same here with the Super+<number> to switch (or equivalent function key if you use that binding for something else), and similarly Super+Shift+<same key used to switch to workspace> to send the current window to that respective workspace. For me, without the second one workspaces are waayy less productive.

          Man, the Windows implementation of virtual desktops is beyond useless to me to the point of exponential loss of productivity. That’s probably my fault for thinking it’s the same use case as workspace switching in Unix–it’s really more like KDE’s Desktop Sessions feature, which is nice, but not really useful for my case.
