I’ve never understood the window tiling complaint. While MacOS doesn’t have tiling built in, it’s readily available for free. Are there features that aren’t available in those applications?

macOS window management is incredibly worse than the other two operating system, and that's if you use Spectacle and other helper tools. Without them, it's even worse. I loved my time with macOS but window management was definitely the worst thing about the OS for me.

  Ya but... how could those differences be so impactful? I tile my windows occasionally, it's handy, but I can't imagine that being my single issue vote.

    I don't tile my windows, macOS' window management is a death by a thousand cuts. I haven't used it since Mojave so I forgot what exactly used to bother me, sorry. It's certainly serviceable, Windows feels better to me, Linux is the best: Super+right click to resize windows, and Super+drag to move them around are killer features.

      > Super+drag to move them around are killer features Do you mean that they're locked in-place unless you hold down whatever super is? I use CMD+direction for a segment of the screen on whichever half or third I want, and other hotkeys for corners, and click and drag if I need. Lately I've just not been bothering much, as a lack of tiling hasn't been bothering me so much.

        No they're not locked, but I can drag them without having to actually drag the titlebar. Just hold super and click anywhere in the window to move it. Don't knock it till you've tried it.
