Having tabs in the file explorer (and split view) puts the experience above windows. I could see normals loving those features.

Tried the dim thing. Suuuper annoying. When I switch from a fullscreen Firefox to a tiny terminal and the whole screen dims down. Also it makes it hard to work with multiple windows, because some of them are dimmed then.

This is a setting you should disable.
