I haven't ever noticed a productivity hit from alt-tabbing.

Many of the devs I work with use Spaces and the three-finger slide to move between apps. However this doesn't work if you're not using the trackpad or Magic Mouse.

Additionally, since I'm usually just moving between a few apps (VSCode, terminal, browser, Teams) it's usually pretty easy to just alt-tab or alt-tab-tab with no loss of context.

Me too - I just think that its a main factor of my left wrist pain because one does it maybe a thousand times per day...
