    It's 2023 and Apple is a trillion dollar company, and they still don't have window snapping/tiling in OSX. I don't have anything positive to say about their OS lol.

    I feel like the full screen tiling on mac makes up for this. Having used both windows and Mac a lot I think I slightly prefer Mac's way of splitting full screen windows but I see the appeal of both

    I had to use MacOS for 2 years after using Windows for 20. The copious amounts of energy suddenly releasing when thousands of dying stars start to explode in unison can't compare to the deep, burning hate I feel for MacOS.

    But I know there are people who like or love it. No problem with that. It's just a personal feeling.

    You do you, but I just hate MacOS way of tilling. When I'm tilling windows I'm generally multi-tasking and I need my dock to look at a third window from time to time. Having it in full screen renders this impossible and the animation for switching is sooooooooo slooooooow😅

    I'm not even sure full screen tiling can be called tiling at all.

    I mean, I'm never gonna tile my kitchen floor with one GIANT tile.

    Technically that's still tiling, but it completely misses the point lol

    Lol you tile your desktop as much as your kitchen floor? I only tend to need to have three things up at most so Mac optimizes my screen space the best since I have 2 monitors, but I'm not on on the multitasking level of many people here it seems

    *I think mac os started supporting tiling of non full screen windows as well according to some other comments so maybe kitchen style would work now
