Yea readers have suggested Spectacle and Rectangle too so it's a hot topic. You have to pay for Magnet right? How does it differ to Rectangle? I like how Rectangle has snap assist but I'd really love if when I drag one windows that the other takes up the remaining space.

Oh I know what you mean. Like in windows, where if you place lets say, the window in the right side, you'd get the option to set the left side with any remaining window. Sadly this doesnt happen with magnet, however, you'get like 20+ of sizing options that really make a difference when you are working with big screens. I personally like it very much and it's the closest I've found to windows window management.
