This is absolutely not the same thing.
The full screen feature on macOS is ok because it’s very well integrated with the 3 fingers gestures.
But the fact snapping requires to go to full screen mode completely sucks, it’s unintuitive and requires too many steps compared to just « drag the window to an edge ».
I agree with OP that Apple stubbornly refuses to implement QoL features for no good reasons:
- Snapping
- clipboard history
- proper alt tab between all the windows (yes I understand how cmd+tab and cmd+` work, yes I understand the rationale, but I still think it sucks compared to the more intuitive of Alt tab on Windows)
These are the 3 utilities I automatically install on every Mac I use
