I'm hoping that Microsoft just implements it natively eventually - their window snapping/tiling-lite functionality has been steadily getting better so they clearly have people working on this kind of window UX QOL stuff.

There's a Microsoft utility calls powertoys that makes the window snapping/tiling even better with it's Fancy Zones feature. Also has a color picker which someone in this thread was decrying the lack of on windows.

> window snapping/tiling

Put me in the camp that hates window snap/tiling.

I have a certain workflow that needs this window there, and this one here ... don't snap to a location or go full screen.

Check out FancyZones in Microsoft PowerToys.
