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.
Yes Its available as AUR you can use YAY. but universal way for flatpak is the best. I will try those extensions. Thanks for the suggestion.
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
GNOME Is great for laptops.
@@kskroyaltech that is why i love gnome and i have bad luck with pcs as a pc that is bought for like 800£ broke after 4 days beacuse of a power outage and i then got a laptop that worked for almost 2 years
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!
Hey, what gnome theme and icon theme do you use?
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)
Great video!! Really enjoy all of your high quality videos!! Some of the best on CZcams!! I’ve learned a lot from you!!
Thank you so much
This video got me subscribed. Loved the Burn my Windows.
Super + a shows the app grid 2:57
Hi, thank you for your video, it was very useful for me, I'm new on Linux, I'd like to know how to display all the system info in the terminal like one you are using in this video. Again thank you for sharing your knowledge
Which distro is it in this Video?
Gnome ist the best awesome DE.🎉
Arch Linux GNOME edition .
What is your Laptop's model and specs?
Hp Pavilion Gaming Laptop 15 Inch,
AMD RYZEN 5600H 6 Cores 12 Threads @3.30GHZ max it can go 4 GHZ
24 GB DDR4 3200mHZ RAM
500 GB M2 SSD
Nvidia RTX 3050 4GB VRAM DDR6 SAMSUNG
Damn, bruh! Thank you so much for this amazing video 10/10!!!!!!
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.
Noted. I will include this extension in my future video.
(
i dont know why but when i'm typing these extensions in the extension manager i can't find them
im new to ubuntu can someone help!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
try switching from "popular" to Downloads or Recent or Name , in the right Filtering Drop down
My extension lists.
. Forge automatic tiling [buton in quick tile]
. Ding desktop icons
. Bedtime mode grayscale display[btn in quick tile]
. Auto theme switcher with yaru themes[ work
with quick tile button and with a schedule also]
.application menu
You dont need anything else.
arcmenu is more customizable
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.
Thanks for telling I missed that part.
though, it removes the rounded corners, which i don't really like
@@raidev_Dash to dock support blur itself, it don’t need another extension to do it
@@abd5139 no it doesn't
@@raidev_ Of course it does you want screenshots ?
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?
Great collection!
I'm thinking of switching to Gnome 45 and here you address a few things that annoyed me so far. Until now... 👍🏻
Thank you so much
while gnome has a reputation of being inflexible, it is actually just highly modular. Pretty much anything you want it can have, and anything you don't like can be changed. It might not have a million options out of the box, but as a new user about 6 months in, I'm still tweaking my gnome desktop and finding out new cool things it can do.
Always excellent stuff...Love to watch.
Thanks for the support. I appreciate it.
Very good GNOME extensions .. Thankyou ^^
Hi from Brazil.
How dit you put weather info inside the calendar?
I installed the custom corners on Debian 12, and it doesnt appear. Maybe after reboot.
Thanks for the video.
If I recall that extension name is OpenWeather.
nice video especially for gnome new users
do ypu know how can we desable title bar on all aplications? or only in terminal at least...gnome 46
The only way to disable title bar is to force the app to use full screen resolution. Press F11
well explained , thanks
why the Vscode menu bar is white, when the rest of the app appears in dark mode??
The Global theme is set to white . VSCode uses the Global theme for the menu. The app default appearance state is set to dark mode. You can change that to light theme.
@@kskroyaltechaaaah, I've been looking for a fix for that for ages!
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!
I Used ArchInstall to install Nvidia Drivers on Arch. Wayland experience was smooth ..
Don't. Wayland is terrible with Nvidia cards.
Fantastic!!!
how do you add the windows title to the top bar?
I started by watching your 2023 edition, then went to watch the 2022 edition, it is still valid and so relevant. I loved the you talked about on the 2022 edition, and even found a much better one, which I have mentioned on 2023 edition video.
I also discovered from that 2022 edition video.
Also you should know which gnome version you are running. Settings > About > GNOME Version.
as ubuntu users on the LTS version are running ubuntu 22.04 and the version of gnome is 42.9. So the extension will not work.
but if you are on the non-lts ubuntu then you are probably running gnome 44, and that extension should work..
Good stuff and much appreciated.
Thank you very much. Yes some gnome extensions are not updated and wont work on newer gnome version. I recommend you to try Aylur Widgets.
@@kskroyaltech You deserve it. And much appreciated, let me check it out.
@@kskroyaltech I have just installed it, Aylur's Widgets. I needed to make some changes to it (just as you would customize any widget, so that it can fit with my other extensions. Its great. I like the dashboard, the notification.. its great. Thank you for sharing that one.
Thank You
Is gnome extensions resources heavy, like how much ram does it consumes while idle?
Depends on the extension
Some things like burning paper effects will get very tiring very quick
is there an extension to make the app drawer smaller and move it to the top left?
Try Dash to Dock And Tweak Tool
0:57 a little flexing there.
Why are your fonts so sharp?
HI, I am new in linux systems and currently using Linux Mint. In my knowledge it uses GNOME, but all extensions say unsopported. What could be the problem?
have you updated and upgraded your install in terminal? apt-get update and apt-get upgrade. Also idk about mint but pop OS has extension app in their app store, super easy to use and install extensions etc
If you are using Linux Mint with Cinnamon Gnome Extensions won't work.
I want a timer in my top bar(like focus session)
Check GNOME Extensions page.
@@kskroyaltech I couldn't find one, if you have any idea regarding this, do update
hi sir, I own hp victus 15 laptop I'm having issue installing Linux on it I recently watched some video on CZcams and got it run on my computer but for some odd reason the brightness controller is not working properly if I try to increase brightness it decreases the brightness even further I really have no idea why it is happening I tried various other Linux distros but still I'm having the same issue can please help me out
You need to install NVIDIA drivers to fix that issue. Try Pop OS Nvidia ISO . It works fine.
your fav distro?
POP OS currently
@@kskroyaltech why people love pop os so much I tried but not find anything different from others distro maybe I missing something can you tell why love pop os
I've looked for the Dash to Dock Animator extension, but only found dash to Dock. So that there are no animations in the installed Dock. what is the solution so that there is an animation in the Dock?
Latest GNOME support is not available for the animator dock extension.
quick settings tweak doesn't work on Pop :(
Yes its obsolete now ... Use AylurWidgets.
Awesome
some of the extension suggested are not compatible with gnome 44, plz update accordingly
Just give it time. Every update is like that
It is the biggest downside of using gnome. The extensions are not maintained by gnome itself. They are managed by random people who work on them voluntarily. So it takes some time for them to get updated after every major gnome release.
@@PranjayVarshney i know and agree and I'm not complaining.. It's was just an observation
YEs I agree to that.
gnome misses open app indicators any extension for that?
AppIndicator and KStatusNotifierItem Support
Flatpak is NOT needed, Extension Manager is in flatbak, but Extensions is in the repository (as well in Arch Linux as in Fedora)
Yes I have universal solution with Flatpak.
Extensions Manager can be downloaded from AUR using YAY.
DNF and APT follows the same.
Dude I have the same laptop. Tell me a distro to get the best battery life.
Pop OS . Its very stable and runs amazing. Everything works fine. No complaints.
cant it work with i3
Wold be nice if the compositor would have blur and other functions instead of extensions.
Yes
We don't need unneeded bloat in vanilla gnome.
@belphegor_tv if you think customization is bloat then go back to windows.
Does it work on kali linux
Works on any GNOME based Linux Distro.
Bro why it is difficult to switch linux to windows, coz i have windows 10 installed and i installed linux mint in separate drive then my boot menu is not showing that windows partition 😢 can you help me with that?
I faced exact same problem with ubuntu and pop os how can i solve that error?
restart your computer , head over to bios boot menu, from there you will see boot entries.
@@kskroyaltech i tried that as well but it isn’t showing in bios boot menu
are you able to boot into any os ?
@@kskroyaltech linux mint only
@@dixitvara check in your file manager or the 'disks' application if the windows drives are there or not. Maybe you deleted the windows partition while installing mint.
plz tell which linux u are using in this video?
Arch Linux I mentioned right
blur my shell does nothing on ubuntu
Which ubuntu version you are running ?
23.10@@kskroyaltech
I love using firefox instead, because i dislike flatpak.

Resource monitors are a waste of resources, no pun intended. Useless really. It has no practical use case. You can use whatever app already does that or top or htop from the terminal.
???
I like it. Way nicer to just glance at the vitals extension than to open up a terminal and run top/htop
You are a waste of resources 😂😂😂
Just delete them if you find them unnecessary? I find it quite useful, as htop shows other non useful data. These visual apps show what a end user really needs. No VIRTMEM or anything like that. Just normal ram. Atleast this isnt windows where you cannot uninstall native apps LMAO
It's a very useful metric for me, can take a quick look at my ram and cpu usage to see what's going on behind the scenes and make sure it checks out without actually going and checking all the apps or system monitor, and terminal is the impractical one in this case, imagine you're installing some software inside a windows VM while watching a youtube video on your host OS, which is more convenient? hovering on the taskbar extention w reading the ram metrics or opening terminal, run htop or top and figure out from there? also good for monitoring harddrive and network activities
cherry on top, my cpu usage is still 0% when idling with 10 extentions running including an in depth resource monitor for everything with real time graphs lol
Terrible, the only thing it does is make it a stupid system with a start menu, it does not integrate AutoMove or WorkSpace indicator, Gnome is a multitasking and minimalist system
These are some of the most useless extensions out there, except for the ones every single person knows already. I especially enjoyed the awkward silence during the settings showcase. Made my day better, thanks.
Please suggest some best gnome extensions that you know I will make a part 2 video and give a credit to you. Thank you so much.
@@kskroyaltech Guess he doesn't know any better ones...
@@82NeXus fr. 💀🤡😅🥳🎉
Haters gonna hate. 💀🤡
Agreed. Most of the extensions on this list are useless and just unnecessary bloat.
The best is KDE, sorry but fact.
It all comes to personal taste. I use both, and both have their utilities, depending on the platform they are running.
@@sharkuel no meu zorin pro 17 ta rodando de boa, ate o cubo 3D
Gnome for Laptops
KDE for Desktops .
I love both .
The fact is that it's not a fact.
