I'm pretty judgemental of people who use more than one screen. Do you not have hotkeys to jump between bookmarked parts of your buffers? Is momentarily splitting a screen between two programs so difficult? Does Alt-Tab simply not exist in your universe?
The judgement continues.
You may find the need for 3 different aspect ratios, just to be sure you're doing the whole user interface thing right. Judge if you like but here I still need to have multiple workspaces and stacked windows, so clearly the extra retail space works. Or its obnoxious and I'm merely coping.
Also fuck games that still dont work with alt tab in this day and age
There are games like that? The only games that don't like it I find are the old computer games that are already troublesome to run on a modern Windows machine
Oh dont even get me started on modded Minecraft, I'm really not sure what makes it worse for alt tabbing over just older versions, maybe its just selection bias, but it's like one mod can decide that it no longer wants to go fullscreen, and I don't think its fabric/forge
KSP was another one that was just kinda finicky, I think it got better with patches
There needs to be a list for games that don't like you alt-tabbing out of them so people can avoid
