The Efficiency of Desktop Switching Shortcuts: A Comparative Analysis Across Operating Systems
Virtual desktops (or workspaces) are a critical feature for task organization in modern computing. Keyboard shortcuts for switching between these desktops offer significant productivity gains by reducing reliance on mouse navigation. This paper examines the default and customizable shortcuts in Windows, macOS, and Linux (GNOME/KDE), discusses ergonomic and cognitive benefits, and provides recommendations for users and developers.
Virtual desktops allow users to group related applications (e.g., communication tools on one desktop, coding on another). Switching between them via mouse (clicking icons or using a task view) introduces latency and context switching overhead. Keyboard shortcuts provide a faster, muscle-memory-driven alternative.
