Super nice! I wish you could add a grid view of the workspaces. I miss TotalSpaces...

I wonder if SpaceCapsule (https://spacecapsule.app/) could work with FlashSpace?

Probably not, because as far as I can see, it relies on macOS spaces. FlashSpace doesn't use native spaces.

Sorry, yes, "could" is doing wayyy too much lifting there. I was thinking you could potentially work together on an integration (and/or leverage the existing integration you mention in the README) that would provide the experience @cyberax is looking for.

In any case, I'm very excited to try FlashSpace after reluctantly giving up on Spaces! And thank you for linking to SketchyBar as well — it's always great to learn about new, well-regarded power-user utilities.

What’s wrong with TotalSpaces?

Doesn't work properly with newer versions of MacOS and requires you to disable SIP.

The author disappeared, and the last available version barely works on the modern macOS.

I've just added a grid view of the workspaces :)
