the amount of alt-tabbing would drive me crazy. I have four monitors for work so I can have my main software up, some file explorer tabs, spec sheets and other documents (journals, calculations, etc), and Teams and/or a meeting window.
if I didn’t have so many meetings, I could drop one monitor. if I weren’t required to be so accessible, I could drop another. both of those are smaller 1080p ones only. but I absolutely can not work effectively with just one monitor, 2x 1440p is just enough pixels to fit what I want to see at once
Accessibility comes from setting notification settings right and turning on the volume (I’ve missed a few by putting headset aside, need to turn it off first).
Meetings, either I am an active participant or it’s a background noise.
As for the file explorer / sheets etc, yeah I alt tab. I wouldn’t be able to keep all the stuff on the screen anyway now that I need Xcode VScode Claude-cli Emacs & few terminal windows. If I’m alttabbing that, alttab to Finder or Browser isn’t much harder.
