Yabai – A tiling window manager for macOS
I use AltTab [0] for this. I find using a mac without it horrendous.

Collection of "Today I Learned" notes
If you're using a Mac, I really recommend alt-tab https://alt-tab-macos.netlify.app/.
I love cmd+tab on a mac to switch between applications, but I was missing a feature to switch between windows of the same application. Alt+tab solves that in the same manner Windows does.

On Desktop GUI Minimalism
I know this isn’t the point of your post, but in case it helps your experience in MacOS:
1. You can change the setting so that workspaces do not change their position/order. See: https://apple.stackexchange.com/questions/214348/how-to-prev...
2. The third party app “alt-tab” provides an alt tab experience that is much better than the native one, and is likely more similar to the behavior you expect from Linux. See: https://alt-tab-macos.netlify.app
I also personally like to use Rectangle for window positioning using keyboard shortcuts, tried the various auto tiling solutions like yabai and amethyst in the past but I think the flexibility of Rectangle is worth having to remember and use a few keyboard shortcuts.
I think it’s unfortunate that so many third party apps are required, but with a bit of babysitting MacOS can be pretty decent to work with.

Ask HN: What GNOME Shell extensions do you use?
There's likely a delay so that you can use Alt-Tab to quickly go back to your last window without the pop-up showing. I use AltTab on macOS like this, which has a configurable delay.

Window manager that behaves like on WindowsOS?
On mac, we have many options respectively for these two steps. For the first one, you can use Alt-Tab, or you may use another one written by me called Oliver (It still has some bugs, but I like it). The main difference is that Oliver can choose multiple windows a time, which is to some extent similar to your description, while Alt-Tab can do only one but goes much faster and natively.

Terminal commands I use as a frontend developer
I am using iTerm2 on my macOS. Other available options are Hyper and VS Code’s inbuilt terminal, which I sometimes use for quick tests. You can open a terminal in VS Code by using the keyboard shortcut CMD + J or CTRL + J on Windows, or View → Terminal.

I Just Wanted Emacs to Look Nice – Using 24-Bit Color in Terminals
IME, this is like the golden age of terminal apps in general and macOS-compatible ones in particular. There are several really good terminals for macOS:
