I asked this before, I think, but I don't remember the answer. :) Where does the "popularity" rating on the Shell extension website come from? <https://extensions.gnome.org/#sort=popularity> How accurate are these numbers? It seems like this could be a good source of information for either extensions to migrate to core functionality or areas where the design could be improved. Right now, the top-ten list is: 1. Applications Menu 2. User Themes 3. Places Status Indicator 4. Alternate Tab 5. Removable Drive Menu 6. SystemMonitor 7. Native Window Placement 8. Window List 9. OpenWeather 10. Workspace Indicator Some of these are part of GNOME Classic; I don't know if that skews the count. But they aren't all. And some of them I can't live without (Native Window Placement, I love you) but others (Workspace Indicator?) seem alien to how *I* use the system. But this isn't all about me. :) (In seriousness, that's entirely my point — can we use this as a data-driven approach to improvement?) -- Matthew Miller <mattdm@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> Fedora Project Leader -- desktop mailing list desktop@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/desktop
