From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

Yeah, I've done that occasionally, too, but it adds a load of friction for moving windows between screens, in particular also when un-/replugging the screen, so it's still painful enough that I don't bother with a second screen.
I guess, it also plays a role that I do use lots of workspaces, so it's 1) extra painful and 2) I don't have as big of a need for a second screen, since I can just switch out what first screen displays very quickly.
