    Hmm, the Mosaic concept is quite interesting, but I feel like, personally, I wouldn’t want to use it over traditional tiling.

    For example, my workflow does involve moving windows to a new workspace to have them maximized, but I do that very deliberately. I want control over which workspaces are next to each other, so I can quickly switch between related applications.

    But I am usually on a smaller screen, so:

    • I’m not really affected by the overly large windows, they’re trying to resolve,
    • I need lots of workspaces and that predictable navigation between them to fit all the windows, and
    • I would encounter the screen-full edge cases with Mosaic layouting quite regularly.

    Then again, they do have the idea here that if the screen is full, it will basically switch to traditional tiling. If on small screens, the screen is pretty much always full, and if the traditional tiling works well, then all my objections would be void. 🙃
