From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

I really want to have better tiling and window management in Gnome. Ubuntu has an add-on released with 23.10 that I haven't got around to test yet. And I know that Gnome has that feature in the works, but it annoys me that Windows 11 has better management of windows with window-snapping than my DE of choice.
Like Material shell?
I use the forge extension, about 80% satisfied. Only issue I have is that all windows open on my second monitor and I have to move them.
I find I have that issue in Windows 10. There's not much consistency between applications in terms of which monitor or even desktop they'll launch in when I open them.
