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.

Just got a Mac, what are some of your must-have apps and software to have on it?
I like Phoenix, since you can program it exactly to your needs in any flavor of JavaScript.

Popular "Video Ad-Block, for Twitch" Extension with 600k users, has removed the source code from GitHub and completely privatized it. The latest update requires new permissions to "read and change your data on all amazon.co.uk sites" adding ""aradb-21" as a referral tag to product URLs.
I usually only watch one stream at a time but the few times I have had two open I just kept a single chat open. Pressing the + next to options when you have a tab open lets you open another side by side, no idea if there's any way to drag and drop a tab there though. More generally for window management I use https://workspacer.org on windows and have filters to automatically open chatterino and mpv on the same workspace with a 20-80 split.

What was the main reason that you use linux?
For Windows, the situation is even worse. While I was forced to use Windows at work, I used workspacer for a while. That was better than no tiling but still a huge pain to use (flickering on every key press in some programs, called "epilepsy mode" by my colleagues; slow startup; restart or crash every time the display configuration was changed; almost no documentation or ability to customize it). All other tiling window managers for Windows were even worse, some not starting at all, being incompatible with Windows 10, or not supporting multiple displays.
