And Apple as well should toss their stage manager into the trash and implement a clone of forge GNOME extension.

Shame the extension seems to be on the verge of becoming abandonware...

😳really? So then I maybe have to look for alternatives ASAP, it feels so wierd if I use Linux without it.

Maybe one of those does the trick: https://lemmy.ml/comment/7678755

Ehh, I will use it for as long as it works, but it seems like if no one volunteers to become a maintainer, the project will be archived.

Just gotta hold out for Gnomes Mosaic plans to bear fruit

👀 Edit: I appreciate the thoughts very much, but after first look, forge seems to me more my taste. I still will watch it.

Material shell for Gnome tiling

[–] [email protected] 1 points 6 months ago

In fact, I tested that, and it is very great work. For me, it is visually not as appealing as Gnome with forge.. And I understand that it makes sense to abandon the extension way and go for own DE with such a gigantic change of behavior of Gnome. Extension are just not made for that drastic changes which material shell is/was doing in gnome.

I’ll check what happens with forge and maybe fork it, if it really gets unmaintained.
