@noheger The XFCE desktop has a really nice take on resizing windows.

Alt+Right-mouse-click somewhere in quite a large area near any corner of a window does the same as trying to find the much smaller window resize area in any corner.

I find this very useful as my patience and hand-eye coordination deteriorate (generally and by varying degrees on given days) as I get older.

Maybe other desktops have similar systems.

@noheger Remember when Mac windows had a nice large “resize handle” in that corner? It served as both a visual indicator, and an easy hit target. Looks like Apple brought it back on the iPad. They should probably bring it back on the Mac as well.
