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.

Per monitor virtual desktops is really cool though.
Windows 11 covers that workflow even better now with a feature called window grouping. I think I'll need to write a kwin plugin or something for that...
sorry for the offtopic rant, but thats the major thing which comes to mind when somebody mentions enlightenment!

I didn't know about that feature in Windows 11 even though I use it on my work laptop but I guess it's because I only use the laptop's screen when I work 😂
I think it's even better on a single monitor when you have a lot of windows open.
It puts multiple windows into a group, so you only see one entry in the taskbar. When you click that, all the grouped windows get minimized/madimized.
I used it on the work laptop as well. And just grouped my different sub workflows, each of which had 2-3 windows.
That way I could switch the task without juggling multiple windows.
@Deckweiss
Interesting. I should check it out. Thanks for the suggestion
