Finally, it's time to wait for the 18. x that I've been waiting for. The author introduced the concept of thread-per-application to solve two core pain points as much as possible at once:
1. For the same application with different windows, multi-monitor focus will point to the first open window first;
2. When a window enters unresponsive, it will no longer prevent AeroSpace from working properly;
At present, there are still some performance problems in the user experience. The most obvious one is that when there are two or more applications in a single virtual desktop, the layout used is any kind of accordion, and it will flash when it is cut back from other desktops. Actually, we are doing traversal here.
It's not perfect, but this update is really important, 😇
