Agreed. Spotlight search does quite well for me. I think there is a discoverability problem with native mac functionality. People tend to install lots of software that duplicates native features
I installed some software for key remapping and window tiling (karabiner and rectangle) when I couldn't figure out how to do it natively. You seem like you know what you're talking about; do you happen to have native recommendations?
hidutil property --set '
{
"UserKeyMapping": [
{
"HIDKeyboardModifierMappingSrc": 0x7000000E4,
"HIDKeyboardModifierMappingDst": 0xFF00000003
}
]
}

For window tiling, can't say I've ever looked into it.
