Hide Top Bar
1 project | /r/gnome | 30 Apr 2023

Hello, I really like this extension and it seems that is not updated for Gnome 44. Does anyone have any news about it or how can I get the same result with a different extension?
Is there any way to hide top with keyboard shortcut ?

This extension auto-hides the top bar. When the mouse is brought near the top, it reappears. If you're like me and like to have a few things on your screen as possible, this is a must use. Works on 3.38, no 40 support yet Gnome Extensions | Github

I'm currently using 4 extensions.
system-monitor (https://extensions.gnome.org/extension/120/system-monitor/). It is nice to see my CPU and memory usage at a glance with some history. I don't look too often but it can be good for understanding how builds are progressing, check that my software is utilizing parallelism well and see when things are in an infinite loop gobbling RAM.
Clipboard History (https://extensions.gnome.org/extension/4839/clipboard-histor...)
I can't live without a clipboard manager, this seems to do a decent job.
Bing Wallpaper (https://extensions.gnome.org/extension/1262/bing-wallpaper-c...)
I don't see my wallpaper often but when I open the menu or log in it is nice to have a new beautiful picture.
AppIndicator and KStatusNotifierItem Support (https://extensions.gnome.org/extension/615/appindicator-supp...)
I like icons in my toolbar.

F38: Mini freezes/lags on the mouse cursor and occasionally slightly higher system load
1 project | /r/Fedora | 5 May 2023

it's this one. no idea if it's standard or I added it, this is a system that was upgraded from F34. but the microstutters were driving me nuts and disabling it fixed it for good. I've moved over to the Trayicons Reloaded extension, as I need the tray icons for various apps and this issue hadn't occurred since.

It is probably hidden in the tray that doesn't exist. You could use this extension: https://extensions.gnome.org/extension/615/appindicator-support/
