Use Multiple Desktops to Organize Your Workflow
The Problem
You have 20 windows open and can't find anything. Alt-tabbing through everything is chaos.
The Hack
Windows: Win+Tab > New Desktop. Mac: Mission Control > + in top bar. Create desktops: 'Work,' 'Email/Chat,' 'Personal.' Move windows to each.
Why It Works
Virtual desktops eliminate window clutter by grouping related apps. Instead of searching through 20 windows, you switch between 3-4 clean workspaces.
Pro Tips
- Windows: Ctrl+Win+Arrow to switch desktops
- Mac: Ctrl+Left/Right to switch Spaces
- Desktop 1: main work. Desktop 2: email/Slack. Desktop 3: personal
- Each desktop remembers its window positions
