Birthrates become negative!? How does that work?

Every time I see macOS "alt-tabbers" I need to mention: Contexts (https://contexts.co/)
The EU is already working on it? You have a strange definition of "already" ;)

I think this kind of functionality has been called "Quake Terminal" for quite some time now...

It's X11 but whenever (tiling) window managers are mentioned, I feel a strong urge to mention Herbstluftwm [0]. It's more manual than the automatic splitting most tiling WMs do but I really enjoy how easy it is to split/tab using the keyboard in Herbstluftwm.

I'm pretty sure it's you assuming that the comment is assuming that.
Re:Dear Spotify, can we just get a table of songs? on Saturday June 04, 2022 @09:09AM (#31619865)
What I hate most about Spotify is: after meticulously adding songs to a queue, accidentally tapping a song near the end of the queue just to see the entire queue being cleared up to that song.

It’s just mind-boggling and creates some sort of anxiety during using the app.

I’m always surprised Contexts [1] isn’t mentioned more in this, eh, context.

It’s absolutely wonderful as a window switcher for macOS, second to none in my view.
