#42 Ten essential Gnome Shell extensions for Gnome 41
Opened 2 years ago by glb. Modified a year ago

https://discussion.fedoraproject.org/t/article-proposal-ten-essential-gnome-shell-extensions/33378/2

I've collected ten to fifteen Gnome Shell extensions which I recommend to people when they install Fedora. I have a bit to say about each one and it's annoying to have to write the same thing over and over! I've been thinking about writing an article for my own blog, but I don't have a stable blog at this time. So I realized this might make good Fedora Magazine content.

According to a quick search it seems like there hasn't been an article about Gnome Shell extensions since January 2019, and many extensions have lost compatibility since then, so I think it's prime time for a new article.

I would most likely cover these extensions:

Applications Menu
Better OSD
Containers
Disconnect Wifi
GSConnect
Night Time Switcher
Places Status Indicator
Remove Alt+Tab Delay v2
Screenshot Tool
Sound Input & Output Device Chooser
Systemd Manager
Tweaks & Extensions in System Menu

That is 11 extensions but the exact list is volatile, that's just to give you an idea.

I want to write a blurb for each one, a rationale and if it has settings, some recommendations.

@sanqui Have you had an opportunity to work this article? Is there anything the editors can do to assist?

Thanks

@sanqui It has been some time since this ticket was opened. Are you still interested in writing it?
It's okay if you are not but could you let us know the status, please? If it is not something you wish to pursue we can stop tracking it.

Thank you for any status update.

@sanqui's Red Hat email address goes to me. They are no longer in Red Hat and while they updated their email address in FAS to their personal one, they never logged in Pagure since.

If you really want to, you can look up the email address in FAS and email them, but all things considered, I don't think it's worth it.
