Sadly the workspaces are very much mouse oriented (want to switch between workspaces? Thats win+ctrl+number!).

And there is no proper UI element for checking if you have anything open in a different workspace without opening the switcher.

You can switch with Ctrl+Win+Left/Right, too.

Not to different from most Linux DE's Ctrl+Alt+Left/Right.

At least any sane DE allows me to define them to be less gymnastic.
