This is my Gnome desktop right now. Nothing too fancy, just the usual Gnome 49 with extensions (Blur my shell, AutoAccentColour, System Monitor, etc.), a Win11 inspired background and two apps running (Vivaldi browser playing a Youtube video and Kew music player in a terminal).
I play around with configs and add-ons from time to time but i ALWAYS move back to this Gnome designed desktop and it fits my needs.
Yes I would, it’s a really clean and polished web browser with lots of cool stuff inside (but the more you use stuff, the more it consumes ressources, like if you use the included mail client and the RSS feed client…).
If you’re looking for a very light one, maybe have a look at Zen Browser, a fork of Firefox.
