The only workaround I've discovered for this is the "All Notes" section. If I'm updating notes, not just viewing them, then the notes I'm actively using tend to be on the first screen and easy to find.

That said this is a workaround. Having multiple tabs and windows available in the application would be much more usable. The main commercial competitors to this application all have a way to open a basic window that can be easily positioned on or over another application so you can take notes while interacting with another application. This common use case isn't easily addressed by Joplin currently.
