The final release of the GNOME 45 desktop environment is expected on September 20th, 2023.

Not long to go now. :)

I always look forward to new Gnome releases, and I still switch back and forth between Plasma and Gnome all the time…

    There isn’t an extension interface beyond load/unload. It is arbitrary JavaScript injected into the shells process. No stable api existed.

    You can dislike that but it’s also why extensions can do literally anything and are very powerful.
