The Best Gnome Extensions ...

[@AleDag93]

I think, however weird that may sound, that Gnome is a very customizable desktop when using extensions. However the enormous problem with this is that extensions are not officially supported, and your whole desktop setup (or at least bits of it) might completely break after an update, especially if you're on a rolling release

[@MichaelNROH]

Oh yeah. It is said, that at some point the changes which break most extensions would stop, however that's not how progress works 😅

[@WohaoG]

So it's like windows

[@Purjo92]

To make Gnome extensions reliable, you need to compromise by using an older Gnome desktop, which is counterintuitive if you want the most recent stuff the latest Gnome versions have to offer, but still want to customize some things. Fixed release distros with somewhat current Gnome implementation are the best middle ground IMO, for example, Ubuntu or Fedora instead of Arch or Gentoo. For me, Ubuntu is the jack of all trades, after some customizations (removing forced snap integrations for example.)

[@benign4823]

Themes are not officially supported on KDE either, if a theme breaks on KDE you're asked to move to the default theme and wait for the theme maintainer to update it, same as with extensions on Gnome.

[@AleDag93]

@@Purjo92 yep, I agree, and that's a deal breaker for me unfortunately. Even though lately with flatpaks stable distros have become much more attractive (to my eyes). I'm curious to try some of them, but also a little uncomfortable to leave arch after so many years, where honestly I had a very stable and reliable experience

[@thedeemon]

Also: Caffeine - quick way to disable/enable screen going off (sleeping) Transparent Window Moving - makes windows half-transparent when you're moving them so you can see what's behind and choose best place gTile + Tiling Assistant - organize windows in tiling manner Clipboard Indicator - a clipboard history tool

[@garaevdi]

Here is my list of extensions, without which I can't imagine using gnome - Gnome 4x UI improvements: can't imagine using multiple workspaces without this one. Makes previews bigger and adds wallpaper to them - Rounded Window Corners: cuts rounded corners on every window, so *every* window look consistent - Disable Menu Switching: disables switching menus in panel on hover (now you wouldn't accidentally do something wrong because you hovered your mouse above wrong icon for 0.01s) - Battery Health Charging: stops your battery from charging to full capacity, which should make it's life longer

[@airilsra]

This is a nice list. Thanks !

[@Arcane_Ayush]

Disable menu switching can be done without extensions too ig ( I don't remember exactly cuz I had done it but I don't remember using any extension)

[@iamabishekbaiju]

Thanks for this list man. The final one was the one I was looking for. I was manually editing the settings for always charging the battery to 80%. This works

[@whocares_yes]

Recently installed Fedora on my Surface after watching your Linux-Surface video. Very kind of you to read into my mind and tell me exactly what to install to customize my installation exaclty how I wanted 1 week after I got to learn how Fedora works! I'm no stranger to Linux distros but coming from Debian-based distros, I was a bit scared of RedHat bases distros since apt doesnt exist and deb packages are not supported natively. Thank you a lot! Oh also foot note: installing Fedora on my Surface was indeed the better move. You said "it's a tablet and GNOME feels better on tablets" and boy oh boy you were RIGHT

[@t1r1g0n]

I never used Fedora before, but switched to Nobara a few month ago as daily driver, because Win11 really got really annoying. And I'm in love. Now that I know more about it I would probably go with vanilla Fedora and install all utilities from Nobara myself, but man is Fedora a smooth experience. I also loved Endevour OS, but while Fedora isn't as bleeding edge as Arch it's way more stable in my opinion and worth the compromise. All in all a great distro that for some reason isn't talked about much, even if it's one of the great three. I really, really love Vanilla OS, but as long as Vanilla OS 2.0 Orchid isn't released I will stick with Fedora as daily driver. That's for sure.

[@StarsOfPleiades]

Some extensions I installed on my Gnome desktop that not on the video: *Clipboard History* stores every clipboard you've copied, and you can pin some important clipboard items if you need *Emoji Selector* will add Emoji selector on the top bar (need Noto Emoji Fonts installed) *Burn My Windows* will customize the opening/closing app animations *User Style Sheet & Fonts* makes the selected fonts for the applications applied to the shell *Aylur's Widget* for customizing the top bar

[@youzernejm]

Every time I hear this outro, it reminds me of Count Duckula show ("Good night out there, whatever you are"). Since I've recently switched to Pop (not a big Gnome fan, but it seems to do many things I need well), I'm happy you've done this video. Thanks. Hopefully, Cosmic won't be bad when it finally does come out.

[@PoeLemic]

Thank you, Michael, for a great list of Gnome extensions. This is really helpful to show us Noobs what are the best customizations for our Linux Experience, coming from an expert like you. Also, I love the Community that you have and are creating. It really helps soften the transition away from Windows into an environment that I can see myself falling in love with and staying with long-term. But, again, it's giving up 20/25+ years of a very stable skillset, yet I'm always willing to learn new things and change when it is necessary.

[@octopusonfire100]

It really pays off when you get a little bit of skill. You feel unstoppable with your computer.

[@lunchbox1341]

For me the must haves are: - tray icons reloaded - this one is pretty self explanatory - hot edge - to replace the default hot corners, makes much more sense to have it activate on the bottom - grand theft focus - for the few apps that show "application is ready" instead of showing me the content -fullscreen avoider - must have for multi-monitor setups, moves the top bar to a secondary monitor when in fullscreen -tiling assistant - also a must have for vertical monitors because not being able to tile apps vertically very much limits their functionality in gnome

[@0Raik]

Some I recommend *Bring out submenu of power off/logout button* - because it saves you one extra click every time you suspend or power off *Coverflow Alt-tab* - if you miss coverflow for your windows *Custom hot corners* - extended - one hot corner is not enough, this one for you. Also customizable as well *Maximize to workspace with history* - Everytime you maximize an app it goes to a new desktop as god intended *Media controls* - for your media pleasure all in the topbar *Night light slider* - adjust night light from the quick menu but needs tweaking and is buggy because developer dropped support from gnome 42 onwards. Still works tho *Tiling assistant* - just like Windows but better *Top bar organizer* - is a must to organize this many extensions *Top hat* - vitals alternative. I like the double line internet speed monitor *Volume scroller* - control volume scrolling from the top bar *Workspace indicator* - manage workplaces from your top bar, so good *Workplace indicators by open apps* simplifies at a glance apps and workplace by icons in the top bar Finally the best one *Just Perfection* - just install it. Play with it. Enjoy Gnome. You don't need Gnome 4x UI improvements anymore. Please like this comment if it helps you.

[@brostoevsky22]

Most of these extensions are in Pop!_OS by default. Plus the Pop Shell tiling tool is a Gnome must have.

[@damnhatesyou]

I love this tiling extension. I use it with spacebar a gnome extension that makes the Workspaces turn into something more like i3 or bswpm

[@1monki]

Fedora, and its UI, are the main reason a now run Linux on everything but my main computer. Being a Mac user, I never liked the start bar, and not having one was an instant improvement. Command + Shift and type is how modern Mac users launch apps and have for years. On Fedora, I tap the "Windows" key and type a letter or two. The coherence of the UI relaxes me. It's stable and attractive. The first Linux desktop I didn't want to change.

[@mohsinalam-h5h]

ubuntu also the same

[@xard64]

You could add "Burn my windows" to the list even though it's mainly cosmetic like the "Blur my shell". Besides the funny name it provides really smooth tweakable game ui like window open and close transition effects. (which also look even better on high refresh rate monitor)

[@ex0ja]

The burn effect is a bit over the top, is there an animation you recommend from that extension?

[@malayamigo]

@@ex0ja glitch, glide, tv Ya gotta play with em and tweak it quite a bit but its worth it. If you work with a lot of windows that you constantly open and close - I'd stick with just glide cause the rest may cause motion sickness. Toodles (⁠~⁠‾⁠▿⁠‾⁠)⁠~

[@belphegor_dev]

It's hard to think of an extension more useless than that one.

[@ytchannel6569]

It's great if it matches the theme of your gnome desktop.

[@kihunkim9122]

Thank you boss! I've been confused watching so many videos, now I found the best one

[@rockpickable]

some very important extensions for me are the "pop-shell" and "hide activities button" (in combination with the mentioned "app icons taskbar"). makes the gnome laptop experience so much better for me.

[@belphegor_dev]

Pop shell is no longer being maintained. Use Forge instead.

[@PaulG.x]

*Blur my shell* allows the user to colour the top panel as well. I used this to make the tray icons more visible. Other extensions I use are: *Recent Items* - allows you to open recently opened files or the folders they are in. *Places Status Indicator* - direct access to the file manager from the panel. *Tactile* - tile windows using hot keys Using or opens notifications in the panel , and from there , the arrow keys allow navigating to the other tray items such as the ones I mentioned above.

[@OleksandrBorysenko333]

Great suggestions! Dash to panel - that's one of my favorites, recalled me the Windows panel.

[@lambada1975]

The "Tilling Assistant" is one of the best extensions.

[@WMan37]

The main thing I want out of GNOME is the ability to cut the size of everything in adwaita by half, and for nautilus to have as many features as Dolphin on KDE does, since I'll literally open Nemo instead of Nautilus on gnome via a command shortcut just to get a more functional file browser. I feel like adwaita's window bars, buttons, everything is too big and wastes so much collective screen real estate. I'm surprised the extensions Fly-Pie, Just Perfection, and Vertical Workspaces weren't mentioned, since I consider all of those basically essential any time I am stuck on an immutable distro that won't let me use something other than GNOME.

[@MichaelNROH]

It's really interesting, because I feel like the new flat shading and old bulky one just make it look that way. From the actual size, it's really not all that different, especially if we take Windows in the equation

[@WMan37]

@@MichaelNROH I am aware, however, I'd prefer things to be _better_ than how windows does it since I have similar issues with Windows 11's chunkiness too. Breeze on KDE is about the right size window bar for me but I tend to use themes sometimes that make it even smaller than that (but only slightly). I think window bars should not even _feel_ too chunky, cause it makes me feel like I'm interacting with a smartphone interface, and not a desktop PC.

[@miguelosvaldo]

Great selection, thanks!!

[@Dr1nky]

I find that Pano is a VERY VERY VERY good clipboard manager extension. Saves images and integrates very well with Gnome!

[@AS-jd1vr]

I prefer Clipboard Indicator. I have hotkeys to switch back and forth. The only thing is it does not save images, but it is a feature I really don't need

[@belphegor_dev]

Too noisy UI/UX wise for what it does. A clipboard manager doesn't need to be very heavy.

Dash to dock is a must have in my opinion. When I'm casually using pc my second hand isn't always on a keyboard, so pressing super key to access open apps isn't ideal

In the WORKSPACES, can you change their BACKGROUNDS independently, so that each one is DIFFERENT? Can you change the BACKGROUND WALLPAPER behind the APPS display (three or four rows and two or more horizontally scrolling screens)? Can you HIDE/REVEAL the bottom dock by moving your mouse similarly to the top taskbar? Can you run your mouse over the icons in it and as you do, the one you pick come out towards you - ENLARGED - making the the dock almost convex in shape - much like the effect in Mac OS?
