I'm new to the Fedora world, what are the best Fedora programs that you can't live without?
dnf install gnome-browser-connector Firefox extension: {addons.mozilla.org} - Resource Monitor • Show system resources in the top bar - User Themes • Custom themes (may break some things) - Dash To Dock • turns the application launcher into a macos style dock - Blur My Shell • make the UI glassy

I started my journey away from Windows with Pop back in May 2020 (last screenshot) and switched to Arch after 6 months to get more familiar with Linux. Faced challenges and learned a lot. Now, as a professional 3D artist, I return to Pop OS for stability—full circle after 3 years!
In my case, I'm using the Blur My Shell extension, so it basically takes whatever background image I have and places it in the overview with a blur effect (though you can also remove the blur completely and just use the extension to set your background as your overview background). By default it will blur a lot of things around your desktop, like the top bar, for instance— just disable anything you don't want; I personally only leave the Overview blur active.

CMD, please stop clipping through your selection box.
Im also a big fan of Quake-style console (using ddterm on Linux) and I am happy to tell you that Windows Terminal has a Quake companion app that is worth a try :)
