Doing software development for nearly a decade, macOS combines that ease of using widely used software tools with the stability of macOS that seems quite rare with Linux (especially in the long term, when upgrading across new OS versions). Also, things like being able to consistently sleep and wake up and my m1’s battery life keeps me on macOS.
With that said, I also have a thinkpad with pop! OS on it. It’s nice, but I have this issue that I can’t alt-tab like I can on windows thanks to gnome. It only alt-tabs the window group, rather than individual windows, and it drives me up the bend.
Yup, havent used gnome in a while, but iirc you simply need to change the current alt-tab shortcut to another shortcut called “switch windows” or something similar
I have a MacBook Pro which is stock macOS.

I this there’s a way to enable the alt-tab on gnome to make it work “window-like”, but wait for people more experienced with gnome
