How often does it usually take for Fedora to update dash to dock in new versions?
As for extensions from gnome.org, it might work better sometimes, it may be worse. In the past, I'd tried to backport patches for new GNOME release support even before it was officially released. Eg. recently, there was some unfortunate breakage that wasn't pulled into the Fedora repositories https://github.com/micheleg/dash-to-dock/issues/1935
- Super + number key to activate/minimize window
- Gnome (43.2) search recognizes the first character twice?
- Typing the first letter in GNOME search duplicates it for some reason (GNOME 43.2, openSUSE Tumbleweed 20230119)

Hello, is there something permanently broken with Dash to dock?
Manjaro does not develop Dash to Dock. Have you searched the upstream issues to see if anyone else is having the same problem?
- Win + key results in letter being doubled. Any idea why? Arch + Gnome 43
- Xorg only, typing into the search bar registers the first character twice

How much or little do you prefer to customize Fedora (GNOME) via extensions?
I happily used vanilla GNOME in the past for many years. Unfortunately they've been making some questionable changes recently, and now I need to use extensions to undo those changes... Essential extensions for me are Panel Corners, and either Vertical Overview or V-Shell.

Extensions you can't live without?
Vertical Overview — To bring back the objectively superior vertical overview that was used to have with stock GNOME.

Vertical Workspaces - an extension that gives you vertical workspace orientation and lets you customize the Activities Overview layout
How is this better or different than vertical overview? https://github.com/RensAlthuis/vertical-overview

Gnome shell interface inverts when I set a right-to-left language. I don't want this. How do I revert this without changing my interface language?
Easier might be to look for existing extensions which ignore Clutter.TextDirection.* altogether, and try to recreate/improve the GNOME Shell from them. To Starte, perhaps you're interested in bringing the Vertical Overview back?, I think all dash-to-* extensions order icons from left-to-right, or have some setting to invert the order, some let you change the position of each element like dash-to-panel.

I extracted the code for my favorite feature in Vertical Overview: full-screen wallpaper in Overview
I'm used to horizontal workspaces and even prefer them, but the Vertical Overview extension had the feature of "static background" and "hide scaling workspaces" that I really liked. So, I extracted the code responsible for those into a new extension.

Survey about vertical overview removal
I was and still am very disappointed with the overview changes. I'm someone who has happily used stock GNOME for years and years. I've always tried to avoid extensions and custom themes, as I actually like the stock experience and appreciate the design decisions the GNOME team has made. But this overview change I really just cannot agree with. It forced me to go to the vertical-overview extension, but unfortunately that isn't really the same as how it was.

Anyone Using Gnome Without Extensions?
I was using GNOME without extensions for years, and loved it. Unfortunately with the latest release of GNOME I've had to start using the vertical-overview extension, since they redesigned the native overview screen in a way that's objectively inferior.

Unpopular opinion: I used to dislike Gnome and it was my least favorite DE up until Gnome 40. The main reason I like it now is the horizontal workflow.
The icons are kind of useful, the Vertical Overview extension I use keeps them)

What are some alternatives?
dash-to-panel - An icon taskbar for the Gnome Shell. This extension moves the dash into the gnome main panel so that the application launchers and system tray are combined into a single panel, similar to that found in KDE Plasma and Windows 7+. A separate dock is no longer needed for easy access to running and favorited applications.
