Is there any way to "disable" the need to double click when moving application windows?
You can also try AutoRaise which will automatically raise the window your cursor is hovering over and give it focus. https://github.com/lhaeger/AutoRaise

- For "power-users" who use *both* Windows and Mac/macbooks, do you find it easy and as efficient to switch between the two on a daily basis? Or should I dedicate myself to ONE OS?

App that activates the window my mouse is hovering over?
There's an app called AutoRaise that does exactly that https://github.com/lhaeger/AutoRaise

Stop Click to enable external display?
I use an app for this. This one here combines the functionality of Autoraise (which allows focus to follow the mouse), and Launcher (which allows you to use a GUI to set options). You can click the menu icon to toggle it (enable/disable), if you find it getting in the way at any time.

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.
