Problem with program windows size after sleep
there are some apps to do this, I just remember (FinderFix)[https://synappser.github.io/apps/finderfix/] or Stay. Finally look here
-
Must Have Apps, Free or Paid -
And some window management utilities like Rectangle and my current favorites, FinderFix and AutoRaise.

AutoRaise - A Focus-Follows-Mouse Implementation on Steroids
I am hesitant on whether to classify your feature request under AutoRaise or FinderFix as it seems to belong halfway between the two apps. Do you mind submitting it meanwhile to the main synappser repo until I decide where it belongs? Thank you.

A Roadmap for FinderFix
On May 24th, I opened FinderFix to public beta. A couple of days later, I noticed a sudden surge in the number of downloads. I am a regular reader of HN and Reddit where I have seen software thrust overnight into the limelight, so my first guess was that someone had posted about it. Seeing nothing unusual on HN, I headed to the other usual suspect and there it was on Reddit!

Ask HN: 如今,保持匿名开发者的身份仍然是可以想象的吗? (Ask HN: Is it still conceivable to remain an anonymous developer nowadays?)
I was caught completely off guard by FinderFix (https://synappser.github.io/apps/finderfix/), the first application I'm opening to public beta, making the top row on Reddit a couple of weeks ago. This sudden limelight is both an opportunity and a challenge.

Ask HN: Is it still conceivable to remain an anonymous developer nowadays?
HN has been my morning coffee favourite read for years now but it's my very first post. I'm an old man, so please bare with me.
I am a seasoned systems architect and developer, now retired. While I was tempted in the first few weeks of my retirement to just turn the page and let it go, I remembered how much I used to enjoy writing small utilities for my own daily workflows. A year ago, I asked my fellow forum members (a Mac-dedicated one) if they would like to beta test some of my applications (and oh, they did). I got high quality feedback I would not have gotten elsewhere. I kept striving to answer their feature requests and today many of my first beta testers are insisting that my applications have outgrown the private beta.

I am not complaining. Any publicity is good publicity and I got this kind of genuine enthusiastic feedback: "OH MY GOD! Bro you’re a god sent. Thanks man I love this app. Also that Cmd + X for cut/paste. Oof so good!".
I however cherish anonymity and I laud the Internet for allowing me to enforce it. I am thus publishing my software under a pseudonym (a pen name, if you prefer) with a free Apple Developer Certificate. How long will I be able, with Apple's current Gatekeeper policy, to preserve my anonymity if I were to turn this hobby into a real business, albeit a small one?
For more context, please refer to a couple posts of mine (a manifesto of my core ethos):

I guess this is a tough question to answer, unless you're an Apple insider, but I'd really appreciate any guidance you could give me.
Thank you

App to change where new windows open/
I just learned of it this morning and haven't had the opportunity to try it, but FinderFix might be what you are looking for
- Finally, a lasting solution for Finder windows size and position

It's been almost 9 months since Ventura was released. What's your thoughts about "Stage Manager"?
I'm using amethyst as my Window manager, and I'm feeling fine
-
Window manager that behaves like on WindowsOS?
And for the second part, we have Wins to manually drag and set the window position, and Amethyst to set it automatically.
-
[Serious] I don't get why people like Mac and I feel like I'm missing out
If you find the native window management lackluster (like I do), you can install a window manager like Amethyst, or yabai, veeer, or many others.

i3 Linux -> macOS
I also used Amethyst, but I think yabai is much better
-
Witch – macOS window switcher replacement
Amethyst is my tiling manager of choice for macOS: https://ianyh.com/amethyst/
It was a little buggy when Ventura dropped, but it gets frequent updates and has stabilized in the past few months.
-
How to tile (auto-fit) all open windows on the screen? Example: If you have 8 windows open, you want to auto-fit all 8 windows on the same screen. What about 3rd party apps?
This can be done through third party programs such as amethyst. It's not a native feature unless I am mistakened.

Software Developer Mac Apps
`cask "amethyst"` [link][oss] for `i3` like window management

> tmux helps all 3, but not particular good at either.
iTerm2 on macOS has some nice tmux integration[1]. Basically, you run a tmux session (using tmux -CC), but the actual window management on the client side is handled by iTerm2. This works pretty nicely with the tiling WM (Amethyst[2]) I use on macOS.
If anybody is aware of Wayland compositors that integrate similarly, please let me know. I'd love to be able to do the same on my linux machines.
