Note to self: the Dash to Dock GNOME extension is pretty handy when using 2k/3k/4k monitors. My list of installed extensions is now:
- AppIndicator and KStatusNotifierItem Support
- Caffeine
- Clipboard Indicator
- Smile - complementary extension
- TopHat
- Transparent Top Bar (Adjustable transparency)
- Freon
- Dash to Dock

After more than a year of using Fedora, I've moved my systems back to Debian. I've been super happy with GNOME 48 on Fedora, but now it's available with Debian stable I'm happy to move to back. I learnt a lot about Fedora in the past year and it's a fantastic distro, but it feels good to be back using Debian.
Got myself a cheap original Apple Magic Trackpad from Vinted. It works nicely with my Fedora/GNOME systems, apart from when I connect my Bluetooth earbuds to the same system, at which point it becomes laggy and unusable. I'll have to try and debug this at some point, but not today.
I spend a lot of time sitting in front of my laptop, but not as much as GNOME would lead you to believe.
The GNOME extensions site/service has been sluggish to the point of unuseable for me lately. It's behaving like a site under heavy load, although I have no data to back that up.
Roughly 2 weeks ago, I changed my GNOME desktop to use Dark Style so that I could test some prefers-color-scheme CSS styles. I've not changed it back since.
New accent colours in GNOME 47 are nice. I like slate.
With the release of GNOME 47, I’m most looking forward to persistent remote desktop sessions. I use GNOME’s RDP feature under 46 and it’s pretty great, apart from the non persistent thing.
Giving the Tandem Raise GNOME shell extension a try. Seems to work nicely and I think it provides the behaviour I want/need, but I guess time will tell. extensions.gnome.org/extension/1506...
I've placed a few strategic .trackerignore files around my file system in the hope that it stops GNOME Tracker from melting my laptop.
