In Putin's Russia, everything can be solved with deception. Right down to using a body double of BBC's Steve Rosenberg, to prove that the international press is in Moscow.

When will the Russian people have had enough of this regime?

Actually, if you watch e.g. the BBC documentary from the early '90s, about Watergate, you'll see that Republicans behaved in *exactly* the same way then as they do now. Bible clutchers that lie constantly and have zero moral integrity. The only reason that Nixon was successfully impeached, was because of the incontrovertible evidence of the tapes, which back then, couldn't be faked.

Spaces are created when you have multiple Desktops. You add them via Mission Control. You can set/change TrackPad gestures, or Keyboard Shortcuts, or Mouse/Corners for adding/managing them.

You can assign apps to a Desktop via its icon in the Dock. There are also multiple Settings in the Desktop/Dock settings.

What you want, may be best achieved via Stage Manager. Apps retain all their window arrangements and you can use a type of 'single app' mode if you want (I love it).

FWIW .. I run backups to a networked 2015 MBPro and a slow ext. HD. Insanely, it runs Monterey, also from an ext. SSD.

It was complicated to setup, but runs flawlessly. I don't have to do anything. If TM Macs are on the network, they back up. I make it even more complicated by having the MBPro shutdown every night. So it runs ~8hrs and not 24hrs.

Also ... macOS really needs a minimum of ~25% free disk space to be happy. Maybe that's changed in since M series?

The understanding may not be the same though, because when you read, you think about what someone else thinks, whereas when you think, you're using your own understandings, logic and ideas.
