I agree. The distro I am using lets me move windows by holding down Meta/Super key and left mouse button - anywhere in the window. Firefox is an example of how terrible it can get, see this screenshot: https://i.imgur.com/zs2wekv.png. To move this window I can either click to the left of the Firefox icon (to the left in image) or between the arrow down and minimize to the right.

This is a X11 feature AFAIK. Meta+Right-click resizes the window by the way.

Good to know!

Yep, I use it all the time, killer feature!

I mean, what’s the alternative? Go back to Internet Explorer style windows, with 3 toolbars?

Yes? We managed on 1024x768 screens and all that “wasted” real estate. Meanwhile I have two 2880x2560 monitors hanging off my dock and UX designers are tripping over themselves to hide more shit in the overflow menu to save me 5 pixels of vertical space.

And one of those monitors is pivoted vertical...

Yes, in Internet Explorer you could show and hide all those toolbars as you liked. So, you could adapt the application to your needs.

If my former self, that was forced to use Internet Explorer, would defend its UI in the future, it would rotate in the grave.
