Where I am
So, for the past few weeks, I have been using a MBP for work. And, slowly switching full time from Windows to Mac.
What I want to know is, why on earth NO ONE told me about the multiple desktop option, along with the three finger swipe to switch between them?

Seriously, how on earth can I go back to Windows now?

To add, I have forced myself to start using the Apple Mouse (I believe it is called a Magic Mouse). And, my goodness, it takes a moment to get use to, but, the simplicity of going back and forth while on a browser, is priceless.

So much to learn...
 
If you're into productivity it's the way to go. There's a YouTube channel called Macmost and he goes over so many tips like this.

I bet there's a way to do it on Windows but IDK

Yeah, it can be really helpful.

The other setting to be aware of is “Displays have separate spaces”. You can decide if you want each display you have connected to individually switch desktops, or change them as a set.

Don’t have a second display? Plug in your iPad and you do…
