I wish I could set the macOS one to allow me to have ⅓ on the left and ⅔ on the right.


The 'cycle' option in Rectangle.app allows just this. I use the hotkey(s) + bracket keys to cycle 1/3, 1/2, 2/3 screen windows justified left or right, and the hotkey + pipe key to cycle center justified.

These three shortcuts are embarrassingly effective and cover 99% of my window tiling. Others include the standard hotkey(s) + return for fullscreen and hotkey(s) + backspace for the previous window size..


Rectangle does thirds with ctrl+opt+D/F/G and two-thirds with ctrl+opt+E/T


There are so many totally invisible third-party apps that do exactly that.


I know, I use Moom, but I wish the macOS one did it.
