For mac users interested in tiling (ish) managers, but not willing to make the leap DHH made, I highly recommend the Magnet app, which gets me most of the goodness he is demoing in the first part here ... (and maybe a little more?)

The only tiling window experience that stuck for me is Aerospace.

I would also like to recommend Aerospace which is closer to i3 on Linux:

Aerospace is great, but macos is not, and unfortunately, there are enough immutable things (given the discussions in the GH issues around them in the Aerospace repo) about macos' walled garden/closed approach that annoyed me/got in my way enough after a few weeks of using it that I have concluded (for myself/my purposes at least) that macos is not tiling/custom WM workable now or in the forseeable future.

How Aerospace (and others) degrade under heavier system load, etc (again, not b/c they are poorly written, but b/c macos inherently does not want these kinds of packages to even exist and makes things very hard to say the least, if not impossible, requiring some very awkward gymnastics) made this incredibly frustrating at the worst possible times.
