Check out wind-move and and frame-move. On a Mac I bind the right command key to “super” and use that the prefix. I can then use super-arrow to move between windows and even frames. Before that I had to use the mouse more but this significantly speeds up my day.
In the end it’s not about which is THE way. It’s about building enough options to build an effective and efficient workflow. I’m glad emacs has useful mouse built in. I’m glad emacs has useful keyboard support built in too.
