Beware if you depend on the tiling window management and keyboard shortcuts from the Pop shell. Gnome developers apparently randomly decided to change just enough about how they handle workspaces and shortcuts that it breaks/changes Pop shell. This occurred on the Gnome3 version that ships with 21.10.
I ended up switching to i3 after that. Currently on Ubuntu 21.10 with i3wm.
- grey_earthling 5y agoUbuntu 21.10 (and therefore presumably Pop!_OS) ships with GNOME 40, not GNOME 3.
- Tehchops 5y agoThank you, that is a meaningful distinction I should've paid more attention to. This reddit thread sums up my issue: https://www.reddit.com/r/gnome/comments/o27q4z/gnome_3_vs_gnome_40_opinion/ https://www.reddit.com/r/gnome/comments/o27q4z/gnome_3_vs_gn... Forcing horizontal workspaces, and requiring an extension to go back to vertical, seems like a regression.
- grey_earthling 5y agoIt's kind of a coincidence that the big Shell UI changes happened at the same time as the big version number jump, but it is a convenient coincidence.
