Re 1: My life has fully changed by purchasing "Magnet" for window snapping and window move hotkeys.. it blows my mind that this isn't a default feature or option for MacOS.

as soon as Apple adds window snapping features we'll be reading blogs on this site about Apple stealing all these third-party developer ideas.

  Isn't it an IP issue? I thought maybe MS patented this

Was about to post the same thing. Magnet is one of the first things I install every time I get a new Mac. Can't live without it. And it only costs $2.99, what's your excuse?

  > And it only costs $2.99, what's your excuse? My excuse is that I prefer using an Operating System that provides such productivity features out of the box over paying third parties to augment an effectively broken social media machine.

    Yeah, I use Magnet but I find it pretty ridiculous I had to pay a fee just to get some basic window snapping/tiling functionality in my operating system

    The hyperbole on this thread is truly something to behold. Effectively broken? Well okay then. I’m trying to defend the thought process here, but I can’t. Willing to spend several thousand for a premium laptop. Unwilling to spend $3 on principle. To each their own I suppose.
