I fought the good fight for years, but modern windows and android hardware is shit in comparison.
Queue the Linux crowd. Listen I like Linux, but every day usability with minimal tinkering isn’t there. Apple stuff just works, and there’s merit to that now.
My husband loves iPhones and all things Apple. He’s adorable. Every update he’s like, “Look at this new great things we can do!”. Confused me: “that’s been an option on android for like, 10 years…”
One of the first things I did after upgrading to the new MacOS was turn off window snapping after just five minutes of fighting with it. If that’s the best quality of life feature that Windows has you can keep it. I need my windows to stay where I put them, not second guess me, or try to help me.
Is the Apple way of snapping windows different from everyone else?
Everyone else has to bring the cursor holding the window all the way to the edge of the monitor to make it snap. It’s not really something you can do by accident unless you have an extremely small screen or really poor hand-eye coordination. Unless you specifically snap a window, it stays where you leave it. Does MacOs do it really aggressively?
I can’t imagine living without window snapping. Half of time I spend on a computer is moving data from one window to another, or comparing 2 things. having to alt+tab between them or work out of unevenly sized windows where I can’t see everything I need to would drive me insane very quick.
Apple hardware is pretty good.

People say this and then pretend to enjoy their lives without window snapping or having a UI worse than GNOME, which I cannot understand lol.
Not wanting to be “that guy” but……
Ack-sh-wa-ly…. Apple added window snapping in the latest release of MacOS.
Wow, they finally invented it!
