How to disable automatic window snapping / resizing on MacOS 15.0 Sequoia

Since Sequoia, my Mac behaves badly. I move a window around and suddenly it becomes full size. Then I resize it again, move it to the center and the size is changed again. It is EXTREMELY annoying and not predictable. Apparently it's some auto snapping brought in from iPads (where it somehow could make sense) but for a normal mouse/keyboard user it's breaking the Apple Human Interface Guidelines. It's irritating, confusing and not even logical.


Thats not how I want my mac to be. I have searched for a button or option to disable this but I have found nothing. The only option would be to downgrade which is a major task.

You might try going into System Settings > Desktop & Dock. Under the Windows subsection, Turn off feature called, "Tile by dragging windows to screen edges".
