> As a result, I'm back in Firefox on my primary monitor (as expected) but now I have an unwanted random Firefox window that I forgot was even open on top of Teams on my secondary monitor!

The idea here is to also use the tilde while alt-tabbing. Also shift comes in handy to wheel back through the applications.

Please note that I never selected this random Firefox window. I wasn't even aware that it was open.

The problem is that when I tabbed back to Firefox, all Firefox windows on all monitors were raised.

And if you expect me to Alt-Tab to terminal, and then remember to use a _different_ keyboard shortcut, that is now no longer so short because I need to holt alt, press tab, release tab and keep holding alt while then pressing ` until the window with Hacker News is selected then... no way pal I'm not even going to go there, this is madness!
