Learn AutoHotKey by stealing my scripts
If you like macOS keyboard shortcuts, I recommend you checkout Kinto go Windows and Linux. On Windows, Kinto used AHK
However, at least when I set it up Kinto did not provide switching windows I’m this fashion. Here is the script I use.
```

Toshy v23.08: Mac-like per-app keyboard shortcuts. Now supports Solus 4.4.
The project was based on another project that's been around for a few years called Kinto, by Ben Reaves, which notably also has a Windows version (https://kinto.sh) using AutoHotkey. But has no Wayland support (at this time) in its Linux version.

Toshy v23.07: Mac-like per-app keyboard shortcuts. Supports Tumbleweed and Leap.
Toshy is based on Kinto.sh, by Ben Reaves (https://kinto.sh or https://github.com/rbreaves/kinto). Kinto is basically an extensive keymapper config that not only shifts modifier keys appropriately for different keyboard types, but has full keymaps for a number of different apps like VSCode. My variant of Kinto adds some features and utilities for managing the services that make it work, and tools like a script to change the function keys mode of any keyboard that uses hid_apple. That means MacBook keyboards mostly, but also some non-Apple keyboards with media keys apparently use that driver module.

Toshy v23.07: Mac-like per-app keyboard shortcuts on KDE (supports Wayland+KDE)
I have a project called Toshy that finally brings Mac-like keyboard shortcuts to KDE Plasma desktops using a Wayland session. It's based on a project called Kinto, by Ben Reaves (https://kinto.sh). As of now, Kinto works only on X11/Xorg sessions. This is due to its use of the xkeysnail keymapper, which has no Wayland support. It is totally reliant on Xlib.

Keyd: Linux Key Remapper
Tangential: I'm currently looking for a way to map Mac-style shortcuts on Linux (e. g. Meta + C/V for copy / paste). The only thing I know is https://kinto.sh/, but it looks a bit too janky to my taste. Any other ideas?

Liberating the MacBook Air 2013 with Linux
Another option is https://kinto.sh . It worked perfectly for me out of the box on Pop OS, and with a few tweaks to shortcuts I’m pretty happy with the experience to the point where I can fairly seamlessly switch between computers and not be driven crazy by the shortcuts.

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

No Bing, no Edge, no upselling: De-crufted Windows 11 coming to Europe soon
I know of this app which allows you to port that functionality: https://alt-tab-macos.netlify.app/

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.

It's been almost 9 months since Ventura was released. What's your thoughts about "Stage Manager"?
I've been using AltTab (https://alt-tab-macos.netlify.app/) , which has been a really nice experience.

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.
What are some alternatives?
