I’m surprised there isn’t much discussion on the amazing ecosystem of tiling window managers in this whole thread.

When I was still using macOS one to two years ago, I was using yabai [1] and it was perfect

Idk about 'perfect', it's still painful and you wish you were using Linux, but it makes it just about workable.

I’m working with Linux mainly these days, and I think the “pain” for me usually is just getting the initial config right, and learning to live with the quirks on the specific platform.

Of course nothing is truly perfect, but I would say that after the initial learning curve, I had really pleasant and productive time with yabai.
