The big difference for me is that there is no way to quickly jump between multiple windows of the same application. I often have multiple different projects open in vscode and would love a way to switch between them without having to right-click and selecting one from the list. All I want is something like the windows taskbar with auto-grouping disabled.

> there is no way to quickly jump between multiple windows of the same application

Except that there is, and with multiple ways to do so:

1) CMD+Backtick

2) ALT+Tab + down/up arrow

3) force clicking the app icon

4) Clicking on "Show all windows"

5) Exposé

As far as I can tell, the only thing that's different between the windows task bar and the mac dock is the preview thumbnails.

The App Exposé gesture works really well for that purpose. It's gesture-based, but you can configure a hot corner to trigger it too.
