      They’re literally ignoring specs… and also most of the features of gnome are the extensions, so I’d count that.

        If most of the features you use are gnome extensions you shouldn’t be using gnome. There are plenty of other desktops that would meet your needs better.

          Most? I don’t think that someone who installs Dash to Panel would say most of their features are extensions, just some essential ones. I feel like you could go as far as “If any essential features you use are gnome extensions you shouldn’t be using gnome.”

      Ahaha is that why they’re removing everything from the DE and forcing people to use extensions for things like desktop icons? So they can say “it’s not us, it’s the extensions”?

          I personally don’t, but it’s a standard Mac/Windows users are very familiar with, and the ability to add them doesn’t impact you if you don’t want to.

          In other words: it’s a net-positive.
