i’ve been thinking of what the most efficient way to use your monitor or screen space is? do you usually just use windows that cover the whole screen? or how do you divide your windows and apps on the screen? do you leave for example firefox window cover the whole screen? and just alt + tab to other programs or apps?

    I recently upgraded to an ultrawide monitor and have been making ample use of Windows’s virtual desktops and FancyZones. I have a thumb button on my mouse set to bring up the Win+Tab menu and jump between setups for work, gaming, projects, etc.

    I never really used virtual desktops previously (usually on a laptop where it didn’t make a huge difference) but the combination with FancyZones has really been a game changer. I’m sure some linux folks are laughing at this being considered a novelty, but it’s a very seamless setup.
