In Ubuntu 20.04 and above:
| Keystrokes | Command |
|---|---|
| Super+↑ or Alt+F10 | maximize the current window (if not maximized) unmaximize the current window (if maximized) * see note |
| Super+↓ or Alt+F9 | minimize the current window |
* If a window is maximized, the same keyboard shortcut used to maximize a window will instead restore the window to its original unmaximized size.

I agree with the comment by https://superuser.com/a/1776234/1794113, it worked for me.
The commands SUPER(WinKey) + D and Ctrl + Alt + D are used to minimize or maximize windows previously displayed ("show Desktop"). You can try that out with several windows maximized.
The command SUPER + H is used to minimize a single window ("hide window").
If you want to hide the current displayed content in a monitor, you can use SUPER + PgDown or SUPER + PgUp to bring it back up. As far as I know, this only works in the main display.
Unfortunately, I haven't been able to find a keyboard shortcut to maximize all windows. That would be very useful. The most approximate solution for this would be maybe using SUPER + H and then Alt + TAB or SUPER + TAB to maximize the latest window.
Additional: This command may be useful, too: Shift + SUPER + sideArrow. It will move an opened window into another monitor.

Under Ubunutu 22.04,
In Settings > Keyboard > Keyboard Shortcuts > Windows
Super + Up : Maximize window
Super + H : Hide window
Then Hide window stands for minimize here.
