Tools to achieve a 10x developer workflow on Windows
The two biggest tiling window manager projects for Windows are komorebi and GlazeWM. Komorebi is probably faster and more resource efficient since it is written in Rust, but I stick with Glaze for now since it has a cool status bar built in I like.

Another DWM experiment: DVD logo animation applied to a window (it's much faster while not recording)
I'm not really sure if this "replaces" the WM or just 'runs it' https://github.com/lars-berger/GlazeWM

Ultrawide monitors are overrated, here's why I use a 4K TV instead
I feel like this is a good place for me to plug my Fancy Zones fork, which supports maximizing windows within zones. The latest alpha also supports full-screening videos.

The Power Toys devs have an issue open regarding this feature, and we're figuring out next steps.

FancyZones fork which maximizes windows properly
- AquaSnap (paid) - https://www.nurgo-software.com/products/aquasnap
As a ratpoison [https://ratpoison.nongnu.org/] user, a decade ago, returning to the rigid window management of i3-based window managers, no longer appealed to me.
MaxTo provided much of the experience I was looking for, but random crashes when using multiple desktops and my inability to get custom recipes triggering correctly had me look elsewhere.
FancyZones offered much of the functionality I liked about MaxTo, BUT it did not support keeping maximized windows within a defined zone, so, I added this feature.
It's a bit rough around the edges, but works perfectly for my current workflows.
Grab it here: https://github.com/peddamat/PowerToys/releases/tag/v0.58.0-m...
