Edit: I want a graphical window switcher that’s fully keyboard controlled, so I can see the windows before switching them.
The screenshot is from hyprland-easymotion which only shows labels for visible windows. I want a switcher that allows for both switching to windows or the same, or from any app, using just the keyboard and no mouse.
Ideally I could go to a window without pressing tab or another key a bunch of times, perhaps select any window (visible or not) with a letter like easymotion.
How many windows do you usually have open in a workspace? Wouldn’t the usual Meta+Direction shortcuts be quick enough for 2-4 windows?
On a 4k monitor, I sometimes have 6 or 8 visible plus 3 or 4 more on a second and another on a third.
So something like sway-easyfocus for direct jumping via keyboard is quite nice.

I guess, those don’t work for hidden/minimized windows.
Perhaps worth considering a bspwm-like workflow. Rather than minimizing windows, you put them onto another workspace. Just absolves you from dealing with the whole concept of minimized windows…
