Hi,

I used to be a big fan of GNOME the way it got out of my way when I didn’t need it and no icons in the bottom to take up desktop space. But the top bar just seems so… useless. It holds a few useful icons in the right side (and you can get extensions to add more) but other than this, it’s just taking up space. After a trip past Xfce I’m now on KDE with the bar in the top.

Have I missed anything about the top bar in GNOME Desktop?

    Agreed 100%

    Twice as bad when you have a VM running Gnome open inside Gnome host machine.

    There should be a simple Tweaks option “hide Gnome titlebar” or better yet a per-window preference setting
