Hummingbird Alternatives
Hummingbird is described as 'macOS utility that allows easy moving and resizing of windows by holding modifier keys and dragging your mouse to move and resize windows' and is an app in the OS & Utilities category. There are more than 50 alternatives to Hummingbird for a variety of platforms, including Mac, Windows, Linux, PortableApps.com and Windows Explorer. The best alternative is AquaSnap, which is free. Other great apps like Hummingbird are Rectangle (Free, Open Source), WindowGrid (Free), BetterTouchTool (Paid) and Sizer (Free).
