As far as I've seen, this is the only app for Mac that doesn't just reuse Spotlight search (which I find to be terrible).
I looked for exactly this type of app for years before finding it, and when I did, it didn't seem real with the old-fashioned website and zero mentions on sites like HN. But I can assure that it works great and it's maintained. I just wish the author would promote it better so it gets more attention and isn't so hard to find.
Does anyone have any advice for making the most of the Dock? I find it pretty unhelpful coming from an older Windows / Linux background: I just want easy access to the windows that are open on my current workspace on my current monitor, and it seems ill-suited to that. I usually have it on auto-hide because it takes up space without providing much value. I'm aware that I can do the three finger swipe to look at all o…

It’s interesting hearing you say this. I come from Windows and thought it was just me. I started using an app called Sidebar: https://sidebarapp.net/ I find it superior to the dock. The applications on the task bar are persistent and only those active on the current desktop are shown. It handles multiple monitors too.

Have you tried Stage Manager mode? It kinda does what you want, but with the windows on the side rather than the bottom.
Earlier quoted context omitted.
You should use Exposé for that. To swap between applications, use Cmd-Tab. To swap between open windows of the current application you can use Cmd-Backtick.
So, the easiest way to swap between windows: Cmd-Tab, up arrow, arrow keys to the window you want, enter

I wrote https://robata.app for getting an overview of my open windows a while back. Let me know of any changes you would suggest. Thanks.
