I also think Windows' native window tiling is one of its best features, but there's a fantastic program called Swish that implements tiling for MacOS in a very native-feeling way. It supports keyboard shortcuts, but it's built around really elegant touchpad gestures. Highly recommend if that's all that's keeping you on Windows.

The other native Windows feature I really like is the clipboard manager, and I don't have a great replacement for that yet. I'm kind of shocked Apple hasn't built one. If anyone has a recommendation that feels native instead of like a ported Linux widget, please share.

They mentioned Visual Studio, as in full-fat VS, not VS Code. That's only ever going to run on Windows.

I'm using Raycast on Mac, it has a bunch of stuff included but I use it only for its Clipboard History extension.
