Yes. That said, I've sadly switched away from i3wm to macOS. I still have my XPS 13 Developer Edition, but dealing with quirks caused more lost time than I saved with i3wm. Dell has questionable UEFI firmware, and GPU drivers (aside from Intel) were a constant source of kernel panics every few weeks if I ever bumped my eGPU cable.

If you’re looking for something similar for macOS, you can get partway to an i3 experience by using yabai and skhd. I’ve incorporated into my own environment and found it to be very useful.

  Shamelessly sharing my own writeup on how to set this up on your Mac https://www.greghilston.com/post/tiling-window-manager-on-os-x/ https://www.greghilston.com/post/tiling-window-manager-on-os...

    No shame at all should be expected from sharing something you worked for that can help people (including me)

I was an early user of Moom on MacOS and haven’t looked back from the dialed in window management. The other app that I can’t use a Mac without is Alfred. There’s other options popping up but Alfred really has a head start on many small things. I still try to go Linux fill time each year and it’s there for development, but not for becoming an invisible computer like the Mac can become to get into flow so much quicker as long as the nannies and notifications are disabled. I have held off on a new Mac since my i9 15” mbp but it looks like the m2 max 14” is a good candidate minus the smaller fans
