How hard are Window Managers to use?
You may also want to try xpytile https://github.com/jaywilkas/xpytile/ or zentile https://github.com/blrsn/zentile
- gTile or equivalent
- Are there are DEs or WMs that support auto tiling as PopOS does?
-
Light weight tiling manager for XFCE4 (and others) - a zentile fork with multi monitor support.
I guess this should work for zentile but per https://github.com/blrsn/zentile/blob/master/config.go I am seeing just ignore, not window.ignore? That might be something you know better about. (ignore = ['ulauncher', 'gnome-screenshot'])

Anyway to snap application windows to corners, instead of half screen?
Not out of the box, but there's utilities like zentile that work on EWMH-compliant window managers to make them tile -- I'm not sure if elementaryOS's WM, Gala, follows that spec, but if it does then it should work.
- Is there a program like rectangle for Ubuntu?
-
xfwm and i3
No. But you can use zentile

Linux: We Need Tiling Desktop Environments
Quicktile: https://github.com/ssokolow/quicktile
Nobody is mentioning it but it is such a great tiling manager, I use it all the time. Just select the window with alt-tab and then tile the windows with Ctrl+alt+numeric keyboards. It's quick and it doesn't need a mouse to tile windows. And it can integrate into any x11 windows manager.

Recommend a tiling windows manager
You might wanna have a look at quicktile. It's basically an addon that adds tiling to existing WM. Works well, but lacks some of the intrgrations dedicated tiling WM have.

My (challenging) experience building a window switcher for Ubuntu
As the author of QuickTile, which is written in Python but even closer to what you describe than a window manager would be, I have to say that, yeah, doing X11 stuff takes a lot of knowledge that's not ideally documented in non-print sources.

Damn, I’m Jealous!
quicktile is a handy tiling tool which saves me a lot of time. native custom tiling is always better tho
-
Is it possible for the Cinnamon window tiling/snapping feature to work in thirds rather than halves?
It's been a long time since I bothered with this functionality, but I seem to recall that quicktile was a better fit for me than those other two. Not sure if it's still viable.

Rust's problematic reliance on GitHub
Actually, I plan to add a .nojekyll file and then use something like Pelican with custom plugins, then set GitHub Actions to run my update.sh on push... similar to how http://ssokolow.com/quicktile/ is a Sphinx-based site hosted on GitHub Pages and automatically regenerated from the pushed sources.

tilling wm on elementary os ?
I've been using ssokolow.com/quicktile for this purpose, it does what I need and doesn't replace the wm.

Thinking of switching from Cinnamon to XFCE on my daily driver, 2 questions though
If you're into using shortcuts I would recommend installing Quicktile for manage your windows: https://github.com/ssokolow/quicktile
