Just to better understand the request. What's the problem with having to click in order to switch desktops?

Hi, no problem just that sometimes it would be useful to rearrange the desktops. For the same reason that in the windows taskbar you can drag around the running windows applications. Just helps to be more organized. When you have 2 desktops I guess it doesn't matter. But when you have more than 5 I guess it starts to become useful.

For instance, I have 8 desktops.

The first 3 are use for various applications related to my work.

The rest are general-use desktops, usually for open browser windows or file explorer windows or testing and installing new applications.

But maybe desktop 8, I decided to open another work related application - or maybe some browser window really related to the first 3 work desktops.

In such case, it would be nice to be able to move desktop 8 to the 4th slot.
