I have now edited this to check window focused and also to base the tiling direction with width/height instead of just toggling. Thank you ThePhxRises on GlazeWM Discord for bringing attention to this.

It is still not fully correct Dwindle behavior though, since the tiling direction check is still done after an action happens like I previously said (this happens when say you move a window the left window from a left top-right/down-right to the right side, it won't be replacing the top-right or the down-right like how Dwindle does.
