Can Mutter (Gnome) somehow be swapped out with another window manager?
Did you try the shelltile extension?

Tiling window manager/DE
About the tiling there are extensions that alleviate some of the issues that GNOME's default tiling has. WinTile is one that adds 4 corner tiling just like Windows 10, (although I had some problems with snapping in/out the top panel and ended up not using it. Perhaps one day native 4 corner tiling will be implemented). ShellTile, gTile, PaperWM and the Pop shell are some extensions that give GNOME some advanced tiling capabilities. I personally don't use them as I'm happy with the default stacking GNOME workflow and prefer to use a standalone Tiling WM like sway if I need to, but I see the value in having a Tiling WM in GNOME and these are some of the extensions I've heard the most positive things.

bro do you even Linux? sometimes you just gotta flex
My setup: - 4K 55" TV required of course - KDE Plasma (some plugins/settings didn't work to my liking with 5.26, had other issues with the install so anyways I'm on 5.24) - UltrawideWindows script - KDE systemsettings -> Workspace Behavior -> Desktop Effects -> Desktop Grid, shortcut set to meta + E because Compiz, also when running 5.25+ it forced a "present windows" effect when showing the grid, I could not figure out how to disable it. Apologies for the snarky post, I was quite frustrated at the time, and am not looking forward to updating Plasma. - KDE systemsettings -> Shortcuts ... find the shortcuts for UltrawideWindows plugin and customize (I'm on my work laptop which I don't have that plugin, just standard Plasma 2x2 grid, so idk where exactly the binds are), readme

KDE is honestly the most feature rich and complete DE out there
I almost switched to tiling but I didn't quite get over how it wasn't KDE's desktop grid. Unsolicited script recommendation: https://store.kde.org/p/1276605/

PowerToys – 11 features Microsoft won’t add to Windows
A few months ago I tried a few KDE kwin scripts.
Ultimately I went with 'Ultrawide Windows' [1], mostly because I like it better than the defaults and at the same time it is still simple to use. The Github page gives an impression of its capabilities and lists the hotkeys, but it is also available via the KDE integrated tools [2]. What I am still missing is a tool to simply define and use custom layouts.

- does anyone know how to get this script working in wayland

Simple ultrawidescreen tiling extension suggestion
I am running Gnome 40.5. I am in search of a very easy tiling extension to help me manage windows on my ultra-widescreen monitor. When I was on KDE I used the UltrawideWindows KWin script and it was perfect for my needs.

PSA: Ultrawide aware KWin shortcuts
I recently switched to an ultrawide and found the minimal tiling (corners only) available by default in Plasma to be insufficient. After lots of searching, I found this Github (https://github.com/lucmos/UltrawideWindows). It's also available if you search for Ultrawide in the KWin script section of Settings. It does all the things I want with quasitiling on an Ultrawide, chiefly, big 50% window in the middle, 2 25% windows on the sides, just like Windows PowerToys.

Splitting the screen into 3 snapping regions instead of the usual two?
I found https://github.com/lucmos/UltrawideWindows - Already pretty good. If anyone knows a solution which works without a keyboard I'm all ears :)
