You should ask more questions. The thing I like the most about Unity, is 
how efficient it is to use without a mouse. I nearly only use the mouse 
for web these days. There are keyboard shortcuts for nearly everything. 
There are a few I would've wanted, such as using alt+num to choose 
between workspaces in the switcher, and  between windows in super+w 
instead of using arrow keys, but since there are other keyboard 
shortcuts available, such as alt+ctrl+arrows, and shift-alt+ctrl+arrows 
to move windows between workspaces, it's not very annoying.

I would advise you to look for answers the next time you get frustrated 
by something, instead of just reinstalling the operating system, which 
is a fairly radical choice.
