!nostupidquestions is a community dedicated to being helpful and answering each others' questions on various topics.
The rules for posting and commenting, besides the rules defined here for lemmy.world, are as follows:
Rule 1- All posts must be legitimate questions. All post titles must include a question.
All posts must be legitimate questions, and all post titles must include a question. Questions that are joke or trolling questions, memes, song lyrics as title, etc. are not allowed here. See Rule 6 for all exceptions.
Rule 2- Your question subject cannot be illegal or NSFW material.
Your question subject cannot be illegal or NSFW material. You will be warned first, banned second.
Rule 3- Do not seek mental, medical and professional help here.
Do not seek mental, medical and professional help here. Breaking this rule will not get you or your post removed, but it will put you at risk, and possibly in danger.
Rule 4- No self promotion or upvote-farming of any kind.
That's it.
Rule 5- No baiting or sealioning or promoting an agenda.
Questions which, instead of being of an innocuous nature, are specifically intended (based on reports and in the opinion of our crack moderation team) to bait users into ideological wars on charged political topics will be removed and the authors warned - or banned - depending on severity.
Rule 6- Regarding META posts and joke questions.
Provided it is about the community itself, you may post non-question posts using the [META] tag on your post title.
On fridays, you are allowed to post meme and troll questions, on the condition that it's in text format only, and conforms with our other rules. These posts MUST include the [NSQ Friday] tag in their title.
If you post a serious question on friday and are looking only for legitimate answers, then please include the [Serious] tag on your post. Irrelevant replies will then be removed by moderators.
Rule 7- You can't intentionally annoy, mock, or harass other members.
If you intentionally annoy, mock, harass, or discriminate against any individual member, you will be removed.
Likewise, if you are a member, sympathiser or a resemblant of a movement that is known to largely hate, mock, discriminate against, and/or want to take lives of a group of people, and you were provably vocal about your hate, then you will be banned on sight.
Rule 8- All comments should try to stay relevant to their parent content.
Rule 9- Reposts from other platforms are not allowed.
Let everyone have their own content.
Rule 10- Majority of bots aren't allowed to participate here.

I use something called "TAN Windows Manager" to save windows position and restore them, it may be what you want
https://github.com/Todd1561/TANWindowMgr
Check also this one https://github.com/kangyu-california/PersistentWindows
Also I never tried it but windows powertoys fancy zones may help you, you can edit layout and all
https://learn.microsoft.com/en-ca/windows/powertoys/fancyzones
I’ve been using persistent windows for the same reason, and it does t seem to play well with multiple browser windows on multiple screens. Just FYI
I too will have to checkout TAN.
I can say from experience that power toys fancy zones is really cool and I recommend it but it doesn't move the windows back. Some programs also refuse to snap to them (voicemeter) or completly disregards the zones on startup(Spotify).
Cool, thanks. I already use Power Toys, and had hoped it might have something, but sadly not.
Will check out those other two though, thanks a lot 👍
This is all based on a vague memory of a fever dream from years ago but.....
*In windows you have two options for window placment: keep windows on active screens or don't do anything. *You can move windows around with shift+win+arrow keys. *AutoIT and Auto Hotkey programs can identify individual windows. I would bet that they can also read if a monitor is on or off.
Write a script that check whether a monitor is on or off then move the identified windows. There are tons of tutorials for both AutoIT and Auto Hotkey out there and I'm sure someone has already implemented exactly what you are looking for.
Thanks for the advice - writing scripts is a bit outside my wheelhouse, but hell, maybe I've just never had a reason to learn, if someone hasn't already. Much appreciated, cheers 👍
