I dont necessarily agree.

  • a different clipboard manager (whatever is equal to KDEs)
  • blur my shell
  • quick settings tweaker probably
  • privacy settings (which is only for pipewire apps I guess, so nearly none)
  • wiggle
  • probably some maximize to workspace
  • Strit@lemmy.linuxuserspace.show

    If a DE has a list of “must install” extensions/plugins for it to be usable, then that DE is not for me.

    I don’t know most of these extensions, but from the names it very opinionated and depends on who you are if those extensions are a must have for you. I mean, Burn My Windows does not sound like a must have, while Caffeine does.

    Title should have been: “15 Extensions I Have To Install On GNOME”.

      You can disable the screensaver and auto-suspend just fine in the settings, caffeine lets you toggle it from the panel, I’d hardly call that a must have, if anything it’d annoy most users who prefer a clean panel.

      I prefer the gnome approach of having a functioning basic DE where you can optionally install extensions that you want.
