Greetings, I come as an Ubuntu/Unity user and what has kept me around is the wonderful support for a 3x3 virtual desktop setup and hotkeys to move around the desktops in 2d space. Does anything like this exist in any of the modern DE’s? I would love to try it out with cinnamon, plasma, gnome etc but there are so many and I only seem to find screenshots depicting linear desktops.
About 10 years ago, I was using the Window manager Subtle which was very strongly built around a 3x3. I don’t believe the development has remained very active but it might still run properly if you want to try it out.
