That also outputs to 2 physical monitors, 2 desktop areas to work on. But the videos I found on YouTube deal with people using XRandR to set up additional physical monitors for a TWM (manual setup). Speaking of ARandR and XRandR, since most DEs run on top of X.org, there should be a way to achieve the DisplayFusion solution, if not directly through the DE, by tweaking X itself. Tell users to set up a tiling window manager: not the aim here, since TWMs do not allow for a window "on top" of another, so 6 applications will create 6 windows (breaking the example pattern above).
In Reddit, there are three posts ( here, here and here) discussing alternatives to DisplayFusion in Linux, but they either: How this could be achieved in KDE Plasma (assuming it could be done)? Given the flexibility of KDE Plasma, it only goes as far as creating virtual desktops through System Settings, but these virtual desktops are also "virtually" separated, making them impossible to be rendered in a single display. I'm always bothered as to why such a phenomenal tool with so many practical applications does not seem to have a Linux counterpart ( AlternativeTo's sole suggestion refers to a single minor feature in common, not the gist of it). After all, is there a program/setting/script/tweak/voodoo to achieve a behaviour on Linux and KDE Plasma (or any other DE if not in KDE's case) similar to how DisplayFusion works on Windows, by defining the boundaries of what a "maximised" window is considered in each part of the display?
