From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

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

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.
