Super clean windows
Any suggestions for getting my windows super clean inside and out, other than windex and newspaper. Trying to avoid windex if I can. One of those window sprays for cars left squirt marks on my windshield which I can see when the window fogs. Tried several brands sold in auto parts stores, not satisfied with any of them.

Use isopropyl alcohol.
It with lift off the contaminates to the surface and allow you to wipe away.

I've used this with great results. Kinda cheap, but very tough (can't tear it), washable and only uses water! But it needs to be barely damp. No streaking if you do it right.

Be weary as to what you use on the inside of your windows if you have tinting.

I use Invisible Glass and micro fiber clothes. I think a lot of it is technique. I spray the product on the cloth and go over the window twice. The first time going across and then up and down. This way I am sure I don't miss an area. I do this on both the inside and outside.

Clay the outsides as well before cleaning. Glass needs claying quite frequently

Could you recommend a product for the inside of the windows, that will not harm the tint?

you can also use (0000) steal wool with window cleaner on the outside especially the windshield takes all the contaminants off and smooths edges on any pitting on windshiled

I agree with both alcohol on the outside and vineger on the inside, once clean I use stoners both inside and out. usually use a glass sealant in the spring for the summer driving season

Ammonia is what you want to avoid. Winded has ammonia which will harm tint. Just read the bottle. I use stoner invisible glass. Cheap and over-the-counter
