Brandon Boswell | Mouseless MacOS Window Management - Yabai vs Amethyst @BrandonKBoswell | Uploaded October 2021 | Updated October 2024, 37 minutes ago.
I used ShiftIt for years before deciding this year I wanted to take further control of my Mac using just my keyboard. In this video, I walk you through my journey from ShiftIt to Yabai to Amethyst and what I learned along the way. I will also show you my current MacOS window management setup along with the keyboard shortcuts I use.
