Gnome now differs from every single other window manager. I understand that alt+drag interferes with some former mac users' workflows, but really, we've been here for 20 years and they just arrived... why should we change our workflows to suit theirs? Can we please revert to the default, and make

The Gnome project have changed some default key combinations that have existed for 30+ years. I don't think this is acceptable. For reference, the new key combination is Super+drag. Alt+Tab has been changed to Alt+~. And the list goes on. I think Ubuntu will do well to maintain the age old
