The extension manager is also available as an AUR package. Also, I would like to recommend another extension called 'status area horiontal spacing' to adjust the spacing of the widgets on the top right hand side of the panel as it can get very crowdy there if you install a lot of extensions. Also 'top bar organiser' to organise the widgets and put them wherever you want.

Awesome, I'm doing a bit of research on what Linux distro and software to install on my new PC build. These kind of 'pick of the best software' videos are very useful, Thanks!

Some people dont like gnome and recommend xfce or kde but everyone has its own preferences and i like gnome beacuse its simple, works well with laptops beacuse of the touchpad gestures and its customisation (extensions for the most part) is fluent

One extension that I really like is "Search Light" because it brings the search out of the Activities view, and makes it similar to Spotlight in macOS accessible with a key combo. An alternative to "Dash to Dock" is "Dash to Panel" which makes the shell similar to Windows or KDE. In my experience on Fedora, it seems to use less RAM compared to the top bar + Dash To Dock combination. Another killer one is "Forge, " which adds advanced auto-tiling and window management capabilities.

I have AVOIDED Gnome because I only have one eye now- andthe sliding "work spaces" cause me to feel like motion sickness.. but I like that one you did to move the workspaces-- like a card deck almost-- and no slide-- I LIKE that-- didn't bother my eyes either.. I might be able to use gnome with that... THANKS... I've had kde and Bismuth for tiling for years-- and am getting ready to need a change... so this might make me able to use Gnome.!!! (I'd tried it many times and couldnn't--for various reasons)

Damn, bruh! Thank you so much for this amazing video

Amazing! Also, in the blur my shell settings you can enable it to work with the dash to dock extension so that it will be blurred as well.

Am using arch (btw) - and when I installed gnome-tweaks v46.1, I'm unable to change shell theme. Its set to default, no dropdown and no folder selection where themes are located. Has anyone else encountered this?

[parkch]

In 4:30 when you minimize the window, their was a glitch. I face this glitch on my desktop very often. Is their any solution?

[solarwind]

Awesome vid but I'm 1000% more Interested in learning how you managed to get nvidia geforce drivers working on arch with wayland on gnome. I'm trying to do the same and it's very frusterating. Please advise!
