Just switch to Linux ... In Gnome just hit Windows+Right or Windows+Left it does exactly what you want. Install some Gnome plugins if you want 2x2 or 3x2 or other custom tiling.

I genuinely don't get why so many devs use MacOS when Linux is already set up for devs, and the stuff you run in the cloud will also run locally with 1/100 the SSH keyboard latency.

Very often it's not a choice, a lot of companies only let developers choose between Windows or MacOS laptops for work.

Sure, but I see a lot of devs who have MacOS as their personal laptop and then complain about something in MacOS that is a non-issue in Linux.

I have a Mac for Mac-type-things, and Linux for work-type-things. Neither is perfect, and I could equally complain about either. That said, if I had to give one up it would be an incredibly easy choice.
