First of all, I would like to thank you all for this amazing software, it works very well and is very easy to use. I am not sure if what I am asking here is already implemented, but I couldn't find a way to do this anywhere.

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
When I have multiple monitors, I would like them to share the same workspaces. So, imagine I am on workspace I on my main monitor, and open firefox on it. If I go to my second monitor and go to workspace I, I would expect to see firefox in the second monitor. This would be a very useful way to switch aplications from my main and second monitor.

Describe the solution you'd like
The monitors would share the same workspaces.

You can use this command to focus multiple workspaces across monitors at once: https://lgug2z.github.io/komorebi/cli/focus-workspaces.html

Besides this, there are no plans for komorebi to ever promote workspaces above monitors in the layout heirarchy.

So it's not possible to open a workspace from monitor 1 in monitor 2, right?

No, because each workspace can only be owned by one monitor at a time. You can however move/swap workspaces between monitors and then focus the workspace that you want: https://lgug2z.github.io/komorebi/cli/swap-workspaces-with-monitor.html
