I don't know about this, as I don't make use of the dock.
Hopefully someone else will know a way to do what you want.

If there isn't an easier way to move the dock, maybe the
dash-to-dock extension could be useful?

  https://extensions.gnome.org/extension/307/dash-to-dock/

That doesn't look to be packaged for fedora, so you'd need
to install it from the extensions site or package it. :)

The alt-tab extension isn't needed (and apparently hasn't
been for some time -- I only noticed that around f33 or f34,
as I used it as well).  You can set alt-tab to switch
windows instead of applications.

This can be done via the keyboard shortcuts UI, but I find
it's simpler to do via gsettings.  I haven't updated to f35
yet, but for f33 and f34, this is what I do (I don't expect
it has changed, but caveat emptor):

  gsettings set org.gnome.desktop.wm.keybindings switch-applications "[]"
  gsettings set org.gnome.desktop.wm.keybindings switch-applications-backward "[]"
  gsettings set org.gnome.desktop.wm.keybindings switch-windows "['<Alt>Tab', '<Super>Tab']"
  gsettings set org.gnome.desktop.wm.keybindings switch-windows-backward "['<Alt><Shift>Tab', '<Super><Shift>Tab']"

I still see the openweather extension in the repos for f35:

  $ dnf -q list gnome-shell-extension-openweather | cat
  Available Packages
  gnome-shell-extension-openweather.noarch
  1-0.49.20210509gitd714eb1.fc35  updates

Is it not available or not installable for you?
