Constantly, I don’t use desktop icons so I am always pressing Win then typing the first 6 letters of the program that I want and hitting enter. I know wintab and winenter search programs exist, but for what I use it for the default one is fine and it is one less program constantly running in the background
My primary machine is still Windows, but pretty much all of my other machines run some version of Linux. The only reason my primary is winows is because I do a lot of 3d modeling and gaming. (Yes I own a steamdeck and it works really nice, but some of my fav’s still refuse to just click the “let anticheat work on Linux” button.)
