Rethinking Window Management in Gnome
If you use gnome, I can recommend Pop-Shell
https://github.com/pop-os/shell
- Why can't we have window management on a desktop environment ?
- Help. I’m using the PopOS tile windows extension(not on popOS) and most apps when opens after boot opens in a weird zoomed way as shown.

Best extension to mimic tiling windows manager?
Pop Shell is what I use, and it works really well (not available on the GNOME extensions store, get it from here, installation instructions are present near the bottom). Forge is another great option. If you want to completely change the look of Gnome, and have a completely different experience, try Material Shell, another awesome tiling extension.

Exterminate your desk: How to remove your mouse
I quite like Pop!_OS Shell (https://github.com/pop-os/shell) for tiling on Gnome, it feels like the right compromise for me of tiling while still having access to a full DE. Seems that installing it on other distribution should be easy enough.

Tiling speed
Is there a config of speed in PopShell https://github.com/pop-os/shell/tree/b5acccefcaa653791d25f70a22c0e04f1858d96e where we can adjust the speed of tiling? Just saying that extention like impatient only adjust the speed of animation, not the actual tiling or windows pops up (example would be archive manager pop-up).

Vanilla OS 2.0 Orchid base is changing from Ubuntu to Debian
One of my best friends uses the Pop Shell [1] GNOME extension to bring in an i3-like experience. It seems to lag behind a few GNOME versions, but system76 has instructions on how to use it on other distributions if you don't want to use Pop!_OS [2]

Why KDE Plasma was chosen as the default desktop environment for Asahi Linux
I am actually a pretty happy GNOME user -- granted, it is due to being able to tweak my experience with GNOME extensions and managing the aspects I care about with dconf settings managed with Home-Manager/Nix.
These are the GNOME extensions I find critical to me enjoying the UI:
- PopOS' Shell[0] for tiling windows
- Just Perfection[1] for making the appearance even more minimal/removing elements I don't use
I think if the GNOME team removed extension support altogether, I would absolutely switch to KDE. But for now, I get an extremely minimal desktop, and I really like it.
That being said, I typically live in my terminal, so I don't spend much time actually using the tools provided with my desktop environment.
(Just want to vocalize that there is at least one person who enjoys GNOME's approach of visually staying out of my way, but giving me a robust backend when I need it)

What was a tech or feature your dismissed as unnecessary initially, but turned out to be wrong?
Just started playing with Pop Shell under GNOME, and I can see the allure.

Three gaming-focused Linux operating systems beat Windows 11 in gaming benchmark
> I don't know what Popos does to make it more "gaming focused" than vanilla Ubuntu.
They have a few changes, chief among them being the PopOS scheduler which I find to be quite effective: https://github.com/pop-os/system76-scheduler
The desktop itself is a weird custom-baked x11/GNOME customization you won't really get on Ubuntu. Not many distributions can claim the title of being truly "unique", but PopOS does deserve the title in my opinion. Even still it wouldn't be my choice for gaming, but I'll defend it's identity as something more than another GNOME/Debian spin.

Ask HN: New ThinkPad battery life on Ubuntu
Power management kinda doesn't work on Linux. There are very minimal rules once you disconnect from AC, and most of the time you'll switch into high-usage mode when it isn't needed. There's not a clean way to fix this, to my knowledge; the Linux scheduler stack is just kinda based around desktop and server hardware.
That being said, I also use Linux on my Thinkpad anyways. There are decent enough workarounds that I can keep my system up for 5-6 hours when away from AC:
- Switching into battery-saver mode will keep clock speeds down, which generally reduces power usage (as long as you aren't slamming the cores)
- tlp can help if your hardware has power-draining characteristics (I don't use it, my defaults are good enough)
- Using an auto-nicer can keep your system feeling responsive when in power saving mode: https://github.com/pop-os/system76-scheduler
So... caveat emptor, YMMV. Linux is far from the most efficient OS away from the wall, but with a little bit of configuration I feel like my system does indeed work as a "normal laptop".
- What config format do you prefer?

System76-scheduler 2.0: getting horrible underrunning from seemingly within my interface itself
ran rtcqs as a replacement for realtimeconfigquickscan at the suggestion of Brock from System 76 (thank you Brock ily). As it kept suggesting that I build a custom kernel and I would rather switch back to Windows than do that, I checked github issues on system76-scheduler, found this: https://github.com/pop-os/system76-scheduler/issues/99. Seems to fit with everything I know about the situation.

For starters, you will get better performance using the stock (System76 kernel) but that's another conversation. To solve your specific issue you will need to install the missing dependencies with this command

How to avoid GNOME getting laggy when system is under heavy CPU use?
And installing and configuring system76-scheduler, it works by allocating the most resources to the window you have in focus, so say a full screen game or a browser you have open. Keep in mind that it only works with the POP-Shell extension and if you don't use it, you will need this one instead.

Fedora was added to the geekbench5 benchmark from the previous post due to popular demand. (On metal, Ryzen7 4700U,16GB Dual CH). All are fresh installations. Fedora did 15% lower in the Multi-Core HTML5 test dropping its total score. There is a 5% difference between the top and bottom Multi-Core.
If you start a game with game mode, then system76-scheduler lowers the game priority and makes your FPS lower: https://github.com/pop-os/system76-scheduler/issues/57
