I use the following:
- AppIndicator/KStatusNotifierItem support(Most apps rely on trays so this is useful)
- Clipboard Indicator(I wish Gnome natively had this but its fine Cinnamon doesnt to)
- Desktop Logo
- gtile(I want a tiling window manager like thing for Gnome i heard its faster)
- Quick Settings Audio Panel
- GSConnect (Looks better,Integrates better with GNOME)
- Alphabetical App Grid
- Arch LINUX Updater
- Removable Drive Menu
i created this cause i wonder who uses Gnome on the Fediverse without plugins and maybe Gnome Tweaks and i may find some useful extensions here
Also Cinnamon users may count aswell but idk this is primary focused on GNOME
i also like my GNOME almost stock
Dash to Dock is all I need to achieve perfect GNOME experience
None
Ditto
I just go in raw dog.
Just cosmetic : wobbly windows & spinning cube
Shows my age I guess
- Awesome Tiles because I find it simpler than other tiling managers
- Caffeine to keep my laptop awake when I need it
- Clipboard Indicator for easy clipboard history access
For anything else I’m fine with Gnome’s basic workflow
I use ConnectionManager as a cute part of my “work flow”. Sadly this hasn’t been maintained very well by the original maintainer, but others have picked up the project and are keeping it patched to keep running. https://github.com/sciancio/connectionmanager2
i have two sides:
- Niri with a bunch of startup scripts and hacks and messy config files
- completely stock Gnome
- Appindicator
- GSConnect
- Bluetooth Battery Meter
I’ve been using a few more in the last years, but I decided to slim it down recently.
I use
- Vitals
- blur my shell
Blur my shell is make gnome look pretty good IMO.
ngl i maybe will use blurmyshell am not sure
- Freon
- System-Monitor-Next
- GTile
- Caffeine
- Alphabetical App Grid
- Hide Activities Button
- App indicator
Used to but currently incompatible:
- Workspace wrap around
- NoAnnoyance v2
thanks for Alphabetical App Grid that was one of my annoyance of GNOME
I like ‘Removable Drive Menu’: a status menu for accessing and unmounting removable devices.

One of my favourites that I haven’t seen mentioned is the Todo.txt extension.
It adds a todo list in the tray synced to a couple of files (that I store in Nextcloud). I add things I need to do to the list, and I also play with the settings so it colours by priority and sorts by priority.
I also use the ntodotxt app on my phone to sync items. The app is fine but I really like the gnome extension, very handy.
- AppIndicator and Kstatusnotifieritem Support
- Auto move Windows
- Maximized By Default Reborn (doesn’t work on some of my apps which open at the start of every session)
- Tiling Assistant
I love Gnome stock but I really think these should be there by default.
I’ve also learned to wait a few months after each new version of Fedora as the extensions always need time to become compatible.
Sometimes I’m intrigued by how much I could recreate what I love in Gnome in KDE.
I agree with application tray not being in GNOME
I use ArcMenu and Dash to Panel
