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.

[Plasma 6] How to get virtual desktops to behave like MacOS “Spaces” (lemm.ee)

macOS Spaces (virtual desktop) allows the user to have multiple desktops PER MONITOR. When a user switches a space, it’s not the entire set of monitors, just the one they are in.

Is there a way to do this in Plasma 6, or… even GNOME?

I don't think you can do it with kwin (KDE wm), but if you're using xorg, you can replace it with something like i3wm. Do note you'll lose the desktop, and will need to unbind most KDE shortcuts. It's definitely worth it though.
