It doesn’t do any crazy ricing, as I mostly focused on usability tweaks and automatic installation of my must-have extensions. (Tiling, clipboard manager, dash to dock, desktop icons)
Most notable tweaks include:
- clicking on a running app minimizes it
- clicking on a group of apps brings up their previews
- adds minimize, maximize buttons to windows
- installs flatpak, adds flathub
- install flatpak and snap plugins into gnome-software (doesn’t work on Fedora)
- installs snap
- installs mtp-tools and gvfs-backends on Debian to be able to transfer files from a connected phone
- adds right click > New File
- Super + Shift + S brings up the area screenshot
- Super + E opens the file manager
- Ctrl + Alt + T opens the terminal
(Those already configured on Ubuntu don’t get configured again, obviously.)
I also recorded a short showcase to prove that it works without errors https://youtu.be/xf739ivb9hg
inb4 snap bad, they are bash scripts. Anyone can delete any command they don’t like.
On Ubuntu, do you also remove the Snap store and install gnome-software?
Do you add the PPAs for updated flatpak version and dependencies like bubblewrap?
Nope, I don’t touch the snap-store on Ubuntus (to be fair I don’t install any snap plugins for gnome software center on Debian/Fedora either). As for flatpak, it’s installed via apt from the regular repos. I didn’t even know there was an up to date PPA.
I know about this but that’s meant for 18.04 and earlier.
I added
sudo apt install gnome-software-plugin-snap gnome-software-plugin-flatpak gnome-software
Looks like Fedora does not havegnome-software-plugin-snap
orgnome-software-plugin-flatpak
in its repos.
