I installed Bazzite on my "gaming laptop" yesterday and opted for the GNOME variant. I was wondering if any seasoned GNOMErs have any advice for using it.
A problem that I have is that GNOME doesn't tell me how many and which windows are open. The indicators for open windows are on the dock at the bottom and the dock is only visible if I press the Mod key which shows the activities overview. Any tips for making the state of windows more apparent?
I'm not too keen on this. Over the last three months or so I have been mulling over the window management situation because I have been feeling dissatisfied by the current setup. I like Niri a lot. It works great with both mouse and keyboard. I have grown to really dislike the stacking window management of both GNOME and KDE. Unfortunately, setting up something like Niri absolutely sucks even with something like DMS or Noctalia. Like no one knows how to consistently theme gtk and qt apps. But GNOME and KDE take care of that and much more which is more improtant to me. I don't have that many windows open at any point so the pain of stacking window management is not a big deal.
