I like Linux, especially fedora. As it comes just with free software,
you might have to tune it a bit to customize or get a better performance.

Steps I do:

  1. sudo dnf group install multimedia Music and Video Codecs All versions
  2. Installing Free and Nonfree Repositories If not done while installing
  3. Removing third-party repositories sudo dnf remove fedora-workstation-repositories #see Included software
  4. Install firefox-dev copr (Development version of Firefox) #Workstation/Gnome
  5. Protonvpn CLI
  6. Use always sudo for dnf
  7. Tune dnf for speed: /etc/dnf/dnf.conf and add fastestmirror=True max_parallel_downloads=10 and keepcache=True
  8. Switch off Suspend and Hybernation to use a Workstation like a Server
  9. nm-connection-editor a alternative to edit network connections in Gnome.
  10. gsettings set org.gnome.nautilus.preferences always-use-location-entry true #Gnome Files; Location entry=cut and paste
  11. gsettings set org.gnome.desktop.wm.preferences button-layout ":minimize,maximize,close" #Gnome Windows, min;max;close

Managing Extensions with DNF/FLATPAK

  1. sudo dnf install gnome-shell-extension-dash-to-dock# dash to dock
  2. sudo dnf install gnome-shell-extension-forge# Tiling and window manager for GNOME Shell
  3. sudo dnf install gnome-extensions-app # Extensions App (green icon)
  4. sudo flatpak install com.mattjakeman.ExtensionManager #Extentions App (blue icon)
