@Greyfox nice!
How many extensions are you using with GNOME? I miss GNOME, a lot! But I think their approach is a bit too minimalist on the UI side. I shouldn’t need to install extensions just to see application notification icons, or show a workspace indicator in the top panel.
Especially since they don’t maintain a shortlist of official extensions that you can bank on in terms of being always actively updated and supported over future versions.
I think for users who can run GNOME vanilla with no extensions installed. It’s hard to beat and insanely stable and capable on Debian releases.
