@marioguzman Popping in here a month later because I didn’t even know stage manager existed and just turned it on and it was an immediate “Aha!” moment for me after years of trying to make spaces and Mission Control and third party add-ons solve problems for me.
It’s definitely a different strokes for different folks thing along with different tools for different jobs. I am generally only sincerely working on one thing at a time, but need to have a lot of different windows for completing those tasks and clutter on the desktop makes it feel impossible at times. I tried moving related things to different desktop spaces, but it slowed me down in as many ways as it helped me.
With stage manager, I can grab my current app and then bring in other recently used apps as I need them and push them back when I’m done, switch to another app and do the same. Works for me because I usually am using one of a handful of primary applications and then need elements from others as I go. Spaces creates too much division for my workflow.
