Yabai – A tiling window manager for macOS
There is pro version you can buy if you want to support the dev and get a few extra features.
https://rectangleapp.com/pro
Rectangle makes much more sense to me on Mac than a tiling window manager like yabai. I tried to use it but it just felt kludgy and I went back to Rectangle. Suits my needs just fine.

What's part of your personal Shortcuts setup that you can't live without? Favorite way to run, hardware, ....
This started when I was unable to have apps appear on the correct monitor and in the correct shape / space. I played with a few window management apps and settled on Rectangle Pro.

Window Management & Snapping
Just curious, did you try Rectangle Pro? There are a number of features in it that are influenced by Windows, like mimicking the win+arrow keys, a snap panel that you can drag windows onto, and snap targets that act like fancy zones from Power Toys.

Swish is the greatest window management app for mac
Swish is pretty nice, but Rectangle Pro is the best. The window throw feature in Rectangle Pro is faster and more flexible, and to me it feels more intuitive.

What all things would I miss if I switch to macbook from Windows?
This is what Pro gets you.

Later: abandonware or not?
FWIW, the functionality here overlaps a bit with some of the functionality that I have in Rectangle Pro.

What's a good window management app similar to PowerToys?
RectanglePro a fully featured upgrade of the free app. Lots of different ways to configure window management but custom App Layouts is pretty impressive. You setup your app windows as required then you can save the config and reconfigure it with a shortcut. You can also create custom areas similar to BTT which can be activated from a Snap Panel which appear when you drag a window.

App LIST!!!
Rectangle Pro is their paid app, with is tuned for pros or something like that.

Ask HN: Why does Apple refuse to add window snapping to macOS?
When I was annoyed with this I went ahead and downloaded phoenix (https://github.com/kasper/phoenix) wrote a little javascript and now I have a bunch of globally accessable hotkeys so I can lay my windows out in a number of combinations. Right now I have setups for over/under left/right, two by two grid, and three by three grid.
I've got some plans to spend some time enabling more arbitrary grids and subgrids but I haven't gotten to it yet.

Hyprland, a dynamic tiling Wayland compositor that doesn't sacrifice on looks
Actually, if you're interested at all, I just, after literally months of reading about this, found a pretty sick solution.
Have you ever heard of Phoenix? https://github.com/kasper/phoenix/. Despite googling around for this exact topic, with 3.8k stars I had never heard of it. Apparently someone has created slim, JS scriptable interface that is basically tailor made toward creating your own tiling WM. I just installed it and loaded one of the examples: https://github.com/nik3daz/spin2win. And what it does is basically ignores the built-in spaces and creates truly virtual desktops by just hiding and resizing windows. And it works pretty well. The response time between switching "desktops" is basically instant.

Has anyone made the switch from developing in Windows to macOS? Any general or specific advice about the switch?
Get a window tiler. At the very least, you'll want one that can maximize (not fullscreen) and split windows in different configurations. Some options here are Rectangle, BetterTouchTool, or Phoenix if you like to tweak and customize.
