No Start Menu for You
> warning about Mac is this: Window management is utter garbage. Maximizing is actively discouraged. Tiling left / right etc? Doesn't exist.
I've been using Spectacle (https://github.com/eczarny/spectacle/) which is technically unsupported but seems work fine on an M1 mac and provides all the neat tiling left/right/up-down windows 8 functionality via the keyboard. This is the first thing I install on a new work computer along with Amphetamine.

Moving a macOS window by clicking anywhere on it
Personally I use Spectacle [0] and a few handy shortcuts to move and resize windows. For me, it's just enough customization without going over the board with scripting a window manager from scratch. As I just discovered, Spectacle is no longer actively maintained, but it still works just fine. The recommended alternative from their readme is Rectangle [1].
