Switching from Windows 10/11 to Linux. I have a few questions.

Looking for a FancyZones-like tiling manager for Linux
This Gnome extension has some of what you want, but no stacking and no specifying positions for certain programs.

Help an i3wm user migrate the workflow to Gnome Shell
and that's pretty much it. Now that I have an ultrawide monitor i use the wintile extension to rearrange windows (if you're on gnome 40, use the code from this pr: https://github.com/Fmstrat/wintile/pull/60 )
What are some alternatives?
