I wish someone would make a tiling desktop environment instead of only a window manager to make them easy to use for all without tweaking because they are the future of the DEs.
If you use a distro based on Ubuntu or Debian (like PopOS and others) I recommend Regolith Desktop. You can install it on an existing setup and it’s ready to go out of the box. You can choose it from the login screen like any other desktop environment like GNOME or KDE. The next version will also bring Sway/Wayland support since obviously X is on its way out in the long term.
Not perfect, but flakey in places, but it does a lot of what you want, it’s tiled gnome.
It is also a bit ancient, isn’t it?
There is an extention of Gnome called pop-shell that does exactly what you want
