Here’s mine. No inspiration at all taken from a certain California based company’s OS ;p

I use:

  • Manjaro OS
  • GNOME desktop
  • WhiteSur icon theme (with a few icons changed in the desktop file)
  • WhiteSur GTK and shell theme
  • Bing wallpaper
  • net speed simplified
  • Logo Menu
  • Show Desktop
  • Top Bar Organiser (to move the time to the right)
  • Overview background

I apologise if I missed anything.

    Yeah, so Gnome has an extension called Night Theme Switcher which automatically changes your background, icons, theme, cursor etc. based on a user-defined day/night schedule. It works great.

    Arc Menu is another extension which gives Gnome a standard start menu (since it doesn’t come with one by default) in the top lefthand corner. It also comes with a KRunner-like app launcher that pops up in the middle of the screen instead of using the default Gnome Overview UI.

    Both these extensions make Gnome feel a little more natural for desktop use, IMO.

        I find this comment really funny, because while gnome is very customisable compared to the desktop environments in macos and Windows, compared to the majority of DEs/WMs in Linux, it’s not very customisable at all.

        Yeah, the customization might not be as extensive as Plasma, but you can certainly add a ton of extra functionality with extensions.
