SUMMARY

Judging by the settings, this is wanted behaviour. 
I would, however, like to forward a suggestion of an option to include All windows running on current Activity (i.e. all windows accross all desktops).

Currently, options are:

Filter windows by:

- Virtual Desktops
-- * Current desktop
-- * All other desktops

I would suggest adding
-- * All desktops

I have been clicking away in settings, trying to work out if I had broken something, since I couldnt tab to an app on a different VDesktop, like I can under e.g. Macos.

After having spent two weeks exclusively on a Mac, this was expected behaviour to me and my muscle memory.

Uncheck "Virtual desktops" checkbox.

Works fine when you do that, yeah.
