From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

If you use the default cinnamon desktop on linux mint, theres an extension for it called gTile.
https://github.com/shuairan/gTile
Not sure if it does what you want.
TBH I've always found the popup showing all the other windows when tiling in Windows to be annoying so I've never looked for it on Linux.
I've got this now, looks pretty cool, thanks! Gonna keep looking over the documentation, but I can't quite see the particular behaviour I'm looking for. It has the snapping (and better options than Win10), but I want to be presented with the list of other available windows for snapping on the other side.
@Euphoma @1111 last I checked it doesn’t work on the latest gnome
It doesn't target Gnome, it targets Cinnamon - and I don't think they share the same API.
