I'm amazed at how many professionals use Macs because Apple seems to hate power users. I had to use a Mac briefly recently and was amazed to find they still don't have window snapping.

It also had no idea what to do with my monitor, couldn't even detect the correct resolution. I'm guessing if I had bought a $3000 Apple monitor it would have worked immediately. But had to dive into "advanced settings" just to set the correct resolution.

Windows snapping. I use Spectable. It's a free open sourced software.

The point isnt about having a Foss solution, but that this is an absolute basic thing that the OS lacks.

True that. Coming from Windows, I really don't understand why this feature isn't built into Mac. Most Linux distros have this feature.
