The 6 Best Mac Window Management Tools

However, Veer has limited window management options compared to other apps. You can only snap windows in 12 different variations with the provided shortcuts. Moreover, the options in the macOS menu bar only show the shortcuts greyed out, and you can't select them either. You can only access them by pressing the key combination, which is Control + Command, by default.

Switch from Windows
Moving windows between screens, is there an app or shortcut that I am missing that allows for this? I never knew I used this feature this much on Windows. I already checked out VEEER(https://veeer.io) but it cannot move between monitors. Source: 10 months ago
[Serious] I don't get why people like Mac and I feel like I'm missing out
If you find the native window management lackluster (like I do), you can install a window manager like Amethyst, or yabai, veeer, or many others. Source: 11 months ago

Ask HN: What if we wrote HTML with [brackets][/brackets]?
I have been using Karabiner elements (https://karabiner-elements.pqrs.org), they allow keyboard customization, I have switched the colon and semicolon key, by default without pressing shift, the key will output colon (:) , I find this useful as I type lot of colon daily. Maybe you can use this software to set "<" and ">" to be the default text output without using Shift. - Source: Hacker News / 3 months ago
Remote desktop from Windows to Mac, native keys and function
In the settings of chrome remote desktop there is an option to not send modifier keys etc to the host system. I've also heard of https://karabiner-elements.pqrs.org/. Source: 5 months ago
DOS_deck: Play DOS games in the browser with full controller support
Possible karbiner but I've never looked into doing specifically that, so I may be wrong https://karabiner-elements.pqrs.org/. - Source: Hacker News / 5 months ago
Always paste without formatting on macOS
Remap with Karabiner (https://karabiner-elements.pqrs.org/). I personally mapped right_command + v to it, but it's capable of a straight out remap. - Source: Hacker News / 6 months ago
