alt Hacker News> I wish Mac had the same ability natively
Hover over the green button in the top left of the window. I recently found out about that menu for moving a window between screens, which is also an option it has. (I also just found them in the Window menu if you prefer that. I dont; the options take an extra level of hovering to get to.)

Option-clicking the green button maximizes it similarly to Windows, rather than going fullscreen. I never used fullscreen just because of the slow animation it used, and now it makes even less sense on my new MacBook with the notch. It basically replaces the menu bar with a blank bar.

Fuck Tim Apple! Seriously, fuck him hard in the arse! Why would they hide this. I've been dealing with this shit for two decades and I find out via a HN comment that Apple was hiding this feature behind a green dot‽‽‽‽
You can also long-click the button instead of hovering. Also, see the menu bar entries related to window management, which replicates these same functions but can be bound to keys in the system settings.
