I'm jealous of you and others in this thread that shared this path. I've unfortunately been dragged in the other direction: I was a happy i3/Linux user and now I'm coping with a multi-monitor Mac setup which stubbornly refuses to support workflows which I find to be very fast and efficient.
There are some tools (all $$) for Mac which attempt to replicate a tiling WM but Apple's support for it is extremely poor, affecting the quality of the tools.

- Steltek 6y agoI haven't disabled SIP yet. As a Mac novice, I'm wary of breaking something required for work (and in a pandemic WFH to boot) that I can't fix. But it looks like it's optional. I'll give it a shot! Thanks for the tip!

- city41 6y agoThis is the danger of tiling window managers :( I now fear one day I will work at a company that won't let me use Linux. But on the flip side, it's a great testament to the power of tiling. You'll have to claw i3 out of my cold dead hands :)
