Pop!_OS 20.04 was released today, and probably the best new feature is the addition of Pop Shell, which features advanced tiling window management for the GNOME desktop. This article explains how to install Pop Shell tiling extension on Ubuntu 20.04, Fedora 32, Debian Bullseye or Sid, and Arch Linux / Manjaro. It only works on Xorg though; I tried it with Wayland and enabling auto-tiling froze the GNOME desktop (it looks like this is a known bug).
