Snapping does not work reliably for multiple instances of the same program #63

Describe the bug
Quick Snapper as well as Snap with right click do not work reliably for multiple windows of the same program (especially newly opened windows).

I can't reproduce it 100% of the time, but I can reproduce it pretty consistently.

How could us reproduce this issue? (If you remember)

Steps to reproduce the behavior:

  1. Open Terminal or Firefox (both of which I can reproduce it with)
  2. Snapping on the single instance works as expected (both right click and quick snapper)
  3. Open a new instance with ⌘+N
    3.1 Grab the new instance and try to activate snapping via right click -> does not work for me
    3.2 Double click the windows to maximize and grab it again -> now right click activates snapping
  4. Open another instance with ⌘+N
    4.1 Activate Quick Snapper and press a number to move window to a zone -> The newly opened window is not moved, instead one of the existing ones is

Expected behavior
Snapping works for the active window, regardless of how many windows there are.
