I tried a Fedora based distro with Gnome and I really liked how Gnome felt but I run dual displays and I felt it left a lot to be desired. Like basic functions to have separate wallpaper slideshows per monitor just isn't a thing as far as I can tell. Gnome 50 has me curious what's coming down the pipe and I was wondering if there was a tracker somewhere or more than just "improvements are coming"? submitted by /u/TheOnceAndFutureDoug [link] [comments]

Hello! I've been looking for a way to have a custom accent color on gnome in the same way as on windows. But all the ways that I've found on the internet doesn't work for me, do you guys have an extension to recommend me? Thank you! submitted by /u/Reptyle17 [link] [comments]
[Update] Deperto: XFCE-style "Zoom by Scroll" for GNOME (Now with custom shortcuts!) If you've ever migrated from XFCE or just hate reading tiny text on a high-DPI monitor, you probably miss the ability to just hold a key and scroll to zoom in exactly where you are looking. So I built Deperto. What it does: It takes the native GNOME magnifier and forces it to behave. It sets the tracking mode to "proportional" (so the zoom follows your cursor, not the center of the screen) and binds it to a modifier key + Scroll. Point your mouse at something interesting. Hold the key. Scroll wheel up. ENHANCE. One tiny detail: In standard GNOME, Super + Scroll usually switches workspaces. This extension hijacks that. We stole it. It's ours now. I consider this a feature, not a bug. (Note: That's not strictly true anymore with the new update, but I kept it because I like the joke.) ✨ UPDATE: What's New? Based on feedback, I've just pushed a big update: Customizable Shortcuts: You are no longer locked to the Super key. You can now choose Alt, Ctrl+Alt, Shift+Super, and others in the extension preferences. Workspace Switching Logic: We don't just "steal" the shortcut anymore; we swap it. If you set Zoom to Super + Scroll, the extension automatically maps Alt + Scroll to switch workspaces (and vice versa). It's open source and I'd love to hear what you think! Note: Approval is currently pending on extensions.gnome.org, but you can grab it from GitHub right now and install it manually.

Hello there, I installed linux mint and change the desktop to Gnome. Cause I love Gnome - Who doesn't. My Problem, When I e.g. want to see the file of a steam Install, or want to see, to which folder a file was downloaded, the "disk usage analyzer" opens. Now I can see how big every file is, but maybe I wanted to open one... :) Does somebody know, what went wrong, or even better how to fix that? thanks in advance! Solution: Right click on a folder - open with - search for Thunar. submitted by /u/halbtag [link] [comments]
Whenever I alt-tab between games (either directly through steam or lutris/heroic) it just shows steam_app_default and the basic icon, the only apps that look correctly are the ones installed with flatpak, is there anyway to fix it? I prefer how Gnome looks over KDE and I really don't wanna go back to KDE if this is a fixable issue, but sadly it's a dealbreaker if it's not, I'm running CachyOS (Arch) https://preview.redd.it/9902loxs7ygg1.png?width=3000&format=png&auto=webp&s=dbac5f487b920f2c3a21105dd2e2fb4cd2a1d0e1 https://preview.redd.it/d67d8yvk7ygg1.png?width=80&format=png&auto=webp&s=9f9dc10f5d81152d97fc93cf397ddc17b3a04141 submitted by /u/Rahdot [link] [comments]

Resources is, as always, available for download on Flathub. Resources’ apps view in light theme submitted by /u/n0kyan [link] [comments]
Hi everyone! I create a simple, lightweight Gnome Shell extension for those who miss that the minimize animation goes toward the Dash (downwards) instead of the top-left corner, but don’t want to use very complex extensions just for this. A few basic settings to adjust the animation curves, speed, and other options. (My personal favorite is Bounce, but it can be set to anything. 😉) Use it in good health! 😉 Download from: https://ostricks.com https://preview.redd.it/hicfrb7piugg1.png?width=3840&format=png&auto=webp&s=25fcce7338c5ede2e7da7b314972936f2e1e8809 submitted by /u/IzsakiRobi [link] [comments]
Which one is more accurate and less resource intensive ? I am using Ubuntu 24.04.3 LTS which comes with Gnome 46. submitted by /u/MikasaYuuichi [link] [comments]
i got blur my shell as an example, but it does not matter the extension, all of them are unsupported for some reason, and i believe gnome 46 is old and should have support for most of these, already tried reinstalling extension manager but doesnt work submitted by /u/pppexxe [link] [comments]
Hi all, Not so long ago, I found a question here asking if a widget like this would be possible. Since I moved to Linux couple of months ago, I wanted to try and make something like this as a thanks to all Linux contributors and their users and to use this opportunity to learn Gnome Extension ecosystem. I really want to be a part of this community and this is one way of contributing to that goal. Dash to Dock Media Player is my first Gnome project. It's a simple extension that integrates media controls into your dock/panel. Features: Media Controls: Play/Pause, Skip and Previous buttons embedded in the dock Track Information: Shows information about your current media Adaptive UI: Widget's background color dynamically changes to match the dominant color of current album art Adaptive Layout: Automatically expands or shrinks based on the length of artist and track name, to keep the dock tidy Adaptive Visibility: Automatically hides from the dock when no media is being played Note that this is my first gnome extension project and bugs are possible, but you are more than welcome to contribute to it if you like it! Check it out on GitHub: https://github.com/pajgla/Gnome-Dock-Media-Player And also, you can find it on Gnome Extensions website: https://extensions.gnome.org/extension/9153/dock-media-player/ I would really appreciate any feedback! Thanks! submitted by /u/Pajgla [link] [comments]

When I first tried Linux 2 years ago, I tried Fedora in a live environment. It had Gnome as the DE and frankly I didn't understand much as a Windows user. App support wasn't that great either back then so I just moved back to Win. Last year I tried Linux Mint again and it got me hooked. I spent a few months with it and then I tried KDE on CachyOS. KDE is great and it made me start loving Linux as a platform even more. I realized I was spending time more customizing the buttons than working though. So here I am back now. I watched Ambro's Introduction to Gnome and instantly realized how simple yet effective the philosophy of it. Default GNOME. It just lets me gets things done. And it also looks very beautiful :). submitted by /u/Normal_Usual7367 [link] [comments]
Hey everyone! I just finished making an rpm for a patch of libinput that adds three-finger drag support (similar to how macOS does it), and I wanted to share it here since I know a lot of GNOME users care about touchpad gesture quality. For people unfamiliar: three-finger drag lets you drag windows, selected text, files, etc. by simply placing three fingers on the touchpad and moving them, without duble click + drag. On macOS this is a built-in Accessibility option that many people enable because it feels faster and more ergonomic overall. This makes dragging items much more intuitive without forcing a physical click or awkward click-and-hold. By removing the need to click + hold, my workflow feels more fluid and reduces finger strain. https://wiki.gnome.org/Design/OS/Gestures mentioned some cool gestures but they didn't get added 😕 libinput has had this for some time now but GNOME hasn't enabled it. You can use this patch on AUR to patch it yourself or use the rpm I created.. Note: This works with the touchpad gestures customization extension and its GNOME 49 branch, via which you can disable the three finger workspace navigation and switch it to 4 fingers. So that three finger drag is soley for drag and the workspace navigation switches to 4 fingers. Steps to install the patched rpm: Download rpm I created (github link). then: from u/ExtremePotato5950: For anyone confused because they have the same version of Libinput installed, you can do sudo dnf reinstall ./libinput-1.30.1-1.fc43.x86_64.rpm. Or sudo dnf install --allow-downgrade ./libinput-1.30.1-1.fc43.x86_64.rpm if you have a newer version I used the Disable 3 Fingers Gestures Redux extension instead and versionlocked this package touchpad gestures customization is officially released for GNOME 49 now, you can use it https://extensions.gnome.org/extension/7850/touchpad-gesture-customization/ Log out and back in for the extension to load. Use extension settings to disable 3 finger swipes, and use 4 fingers for workspace switching. Trust me this will give you a huge quality of life boost on laptops with touchpads. submitted by /u/FileWaste5999 [link] [comments]
Link: github.com/pshycodr/airctl I built this because I wanted a clean WiFi manager for my Arch setup. Most tools felt clunky or terminal-only. What it does: • Scans available networks with auto-refresh • Connects to secured and open networks • Shows detailed network info (IP address, gateway, DNS servers, signal strength, frequency, security type) • Lets you forget and disconnect from networks • Toggles WiFi on/off Link: github.com/pshycodr/airctl submitted by /u/Aroy666 [link] [comments]
On the many tries I did to try to switch to linux one of some struggles I had was to find a well designed and functional video player I love VLC and appreciate its existence but that app is so old and so ugly (I had screenbox on windows which was very beautiful and very good in general) so was mpv and some other attempts at making a gtk video player apps something was always off Then came Showtime which is now the default gnome video player but it's very basic and I always had issues with playing subtitles on it (they almost never work and almost always crashed the app) Until I found this one on flathub recommendations couple of days ago It was just at v1.0.1 but I gave it a shot and I was surprised to find a very good and very stable app with lots of feature (and subtitles worked 😅) It surprised me to the point I felt like I can't be the only one to use and enjoy this app and I didn't know how else to support the developer other than making a post here so maybe it could reach a lot of people https://flathub.org/en/apps/io.github.diegopvlk.Cine submitted by /u/CaptechOmar [link] [comments]
