Extensions can crash your system on GNOME as they modify the shell itself, so running incompatible extensions is a real problem. The upside to this is that when you find an extension and it has your version on it, it’s guaranteed to run. Fyi you can easilly override the version requirements.
GNOME major upgrades (v48, v49…) always break extensions by design to force the extension maintainers to update. It’s generally recommended to hold off on upgrading for a few weeks to give maintainers time to update their extensions.
It’s against their interest to offer this as they have everything to gain by making you install their proprietary application and capturing you inside their ecosystem where they don’t have to compete fairly. Would Steam be in the position it’s in if you didn’t have to install it to download your games?
GNOME’s always been customizable with gsettings and extensions, the problem is that the options aren’t exposed in the user settings and in the case of the extensions they are only available through third party software. The upside to this is that the desktop environment is leaner which allows faster development and generally less bugs.
Why unfortunately? GNOME puts a lot of work in accessibility and being viable on every device.
For mbin: fedia.io##article:has(header:has(h2:has-text(/trump/i)))
if you want case sensitivity drop the i: fedia.io##article:has(header:has(h2:has-text(/ICE/)))
How bad can it be? It’s just GNOME with a few extensions to make it look like windows.
As I explained elsewhere there is no official app to change this setting
You’re skipping a step here, first a decision needs to be made on whether or not the default will change, then and only then can they decide whether it’s worth adding something like a toggle to the mouse settings panel, which would be trivial btw.
Steam reviews aren’t really a good quality metric, a 6/10 game can have 95% ratings, it’s the rotten tomatoes of video games.
You could always read the original source and find out the intent, but who has time for that?
Part of the problem here is that those extra permissions weren’t required if you used Apple’s ad service. They stifled competition in their own favor.
