Another +1 for Divvy. I have a hard time living without it.
When plugged into my large monitor, I have hotkeys set up to put a window on the left 1/3, the middle 1/3, and the right 1/3. It is so unbelievably useful.
Also when doing multiple monitors, if you do a Divvy hotkey it will move the current window to the monitor your mouse is in. This makes moving windows so fast.

Divvy user here as well, for many years at this point. They haven’t updated it in ages, and with every new macOS release I’m expecting it to stop working. But somehow, it’s still going strong. Even the global keyboard shortcuts!

For Windows, PowerToys offers something comparable to Divvy (and IMHO better): https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/powertoys/fancyzone...
I'm very surprised they don't distribute these tools among Windows, now that they are matured.
PowerToys name also brings a lot of good old memories :)

In fairness, many of the features from PowerToys are built in to Windows 11.

I use AltTab, completely free and I only need to fix task switching, no need for fancier features of witch.

Play around with the Witch options; it seems very sensitive to which ones you choose.

I also like Witch for window/app switching. I just wish it was a little less sluggish to activate:
