I tried to live like this for a while but found I could not separate applications into spaces

I would try setting up a space for, eg, all my communication stuff. But suddenly I’d need to drag-and-drop an image from my image editor into Slack. Or I’d want to drag a graphic from Safari into Final Cut Pro. Or any number of cross-workspace operations

How do you handle this with spaces? Do you initiate the drag, tap the space hot key, then drop?
