OMG! Ubuntu!<p>Easily Toggle Ubuntu’s New Wellbeing Reminders On/Off</p><p>The Wellbeing controls available in Ubuntu 25.04 make it easy to get periodic prompts to move your butt or look away from your screen — you might not want them enabled all the time, though. Wellbeing controls were one of the flagship features of GNOME 48. As well as screen time monitoring (with controls to set a screen time limit, and turn the display greyscale when it’s reached), you can enable reminders to take a break and move. Alerts telling you to get up and move may be helpful during the day, but at nighttime when you’re, say, engrossed in :sys_more_orange:<br><a href="https://hello.2heng.xin/tags/News" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>News</span></a> <a href="https://hello.2heng.xin/tags/Gnome48" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Gnome48</span></a> <a href="https://hello.2heng.xin/tags/GnomeExtensions" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>GnomeExtensions</span></a> <a href="https://hello.2heng.xin/tags/QuickSettings" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>QuickSettings</span></a> <a href="https://hello.2heng.xin/tags/Ubuntu25_04" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Ubuntu25_04</span></a> </p><p>:sys_omgubuntu: <a href="https://www.omgubuntu.co.uk/2025/05/ubuntu-wellbeing-toggle-gnome-extension" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://www.</span><span class="ellipsis">omgubuntu.co.uk/2025/05/ubuntu</span><span class="invisible">-wellbeing-toggle-gnome-extension</span></a></p>

OMG! Ubuntu!<p>Tiling Shell GNOME Extension Update Adds New Features</p><p>An update to Tiling Shell, the efficient window snapping extension for GNOME Shell, is rolling out with some appreciable enhancements. Its nifty ‘Windows Suggestions’ feature, which makes it easy to tile your other open windows to remaining spaces in a layout, is now available when using the Snap Assistant. The option has to be manually enabled, but once done: As a reminder for those less-familia with this extension, Tiling Shell offers lots of different ways to tile windows besides the slide-in Windows 11-esque) ‘Snap Assistant’ drop zone demoed above. You can tile windows using (custom) keyboard shortcuts; a combination of :sys_more_orange:<br><a href="https://hello.2heng.xin/tags/News" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>News</span></a> <a href="https://hello.2heng.xin/tags/AppUpdates" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>AppUpdates</span></a> <a href="https://hello.2heng.xin/tags/GnomeExtensions" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>GnomeExtensions</span></a> <a href="https://hello.2heng.xin/tags/TilingShell" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>TilingShell</span></a> </p><p>:sys_omgubuntu: <a href="https://www.omgubuntu.co.uk/2025/03/tiling-shell-gnome-extension-update-adds-new-features" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://www.</span><span class="ellipsis">omgubuntu.co.uk/2025/03/tiling</span><span class="invisible">-shell-gnome-extension-update-adds-new-features</span></a></p>
OMG! Ubuntu!<p>Extension Manager Update Brings UI Buffs, Support for GNOME 48</p><p>If you’re an avid user of GNOME Shell extensions then a) you’re in good company, and b) you’ll be familiar with Matt Jakeman’s terrific Extension Manager app since it makes finding, installing and managing GNOME extensions terrifically easy. This week Extension Manager received a small-ish update. I was going to cover the changes in my next Linux Release Roundup at the end of the month, but with GNOME 48 out—cue the “does my favourite extension still work” panic—it feels fitting to let the update stand in a solo spotlight.

OMG! Ubuntu!<p>Dash to Panel GNOME Extension Gets Big Update</p><p>A big update to the perennially popular GNOME Shell extension Dash to Panel is rolling out, including new settings to go from Dash to Panel to dock mode! Admittedly, that doesn’t sound like a new feature given that Dash to Panel is based on code from Dash to Dock. Yet, until now, those wanting the unified panel of Dash to Panel with the aesthetic of a dock… Had to make do with an inelegant fudge, or switch extension. No more; when whim and want demands a dynamic dock setup, Dash to Panel’s preferences area can help, making it easier to :sys_more_orange:<br><a href="https://hello.2heng.xin/tags/News" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>News</span></a> <a href="https://hello.2heng.xin/tags/Customization" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Customization</span></a> <a href="https://hello.2heng.xin/tags/DashToPanel" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>DashToPanel</span></a> <a href="https://hello.2heng.xin/tags/EyeCandy" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>EyeCandy</span></a> <a href="https://hello.2heng.xin/tags/GnomeExtensions" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>GnomeExtensions</span></a> </p><p>:sys_omgubuntu: <a href="https://www.omgubuntu.co.uk/2025/03/dash-to-panel-gnome-extension-big-update" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://www.</span><span class="ellipsis">omgubuntu.co.uk/2025/03/dash-t</span><span class="invisible">o-panel-gnome-extension-big-update</span></a></p>
OMG! Ubuntu!<p>App Grid Wizard Puts GNOME Shell Shortcuts into Folders</p><p>The application picker (aka app grid) in GNOME Shell is pretty perfect as it comes, showing launchers for installed apps plus the ability to rearrange them using drag and drop and create custom folders to group apps together. Some folks prefer a little more order. I’ve spotlighted a few Ubuntu app grid tweaks over the years, from one that puts app shortcuts in alphabetical order to ones which restores ‘missing’ shortcuts for apps pinned to the Ubuntu Dock. And now a new app grid helper has appeared – one sure to appeal to those with a preference for keeping things :sys_more_orange:<br><a href="https://hello.2heng.xin/tags/News" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>News</span></a> <a href="https://hello.2heng.xin/tags/GnomeExtensions" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>GnomeExtensions</span></a> </p><p>:sys_omgubuntu: <a href="https://www.omgubuntu.co.uk/2025/02/app-grid-wizard-auto-groups-software-into-folders-in-gnome-shell" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://www.</span><span class="ellipsis">omgubuntu.co.uk/2025/02/app-gr</span><span class="invisible">id-wizard-auto-groups-software-into-folders-in-gnome-shell</span></a></p>
OMG! Ubuntu!<p>4 New Effects Added to ‘Burn My Windows’ GNOME Extension</p><p>A set of four cool new window opening and closing animations got added to gaudy GNOME Shell extension Burn My Windows this weekend. A veritable Linux eye-candy essential, Burn My Windows makes it easy to apply a variety of visual effects to Ubuntu when opening and/or closing app windows, dialogs, and modals. Its sole purpose is to make using Linux a bit more entertaining. Burn My Windows v45 is the latest update. It adds support for the upcoming GNOME 48 release (which will ship in Ubuntu 25.04 this April), fine-tunes effect filtering in Preferences, and improves its Incinerate effect with :sys_more_orange:<br><a href="https://hello.2heng.xin/tags/News" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>News</span></a> <a href="https://hello.2heng.xin/tags/BurnMyWindows" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>BurnMyWindows</span></a> <a href="https://hello.2heng.xin/tags/EyeCandy" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>EyeCandy</span></a> <a href="https://hello.2heng.xin/tags/GnomeExtensions" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>GnomeExtensions</span></a> </p><p>:sys_omgubuntu: <a href="https://www.omgubuntu.co.uk/2025/02/4-new-visual-effects-added-to-burn-my-windows-gnome-extensions" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://www.</span><span class="ellipsis">omgubuntu.co.uk/2025/02/4-new-</span><span class="invisible">visual-effects-added-to-burn-my-windows-gnome-extensions</span></a></p>
OMG! Ubuntu!<p>Tiling Shell Update Adds Window Suggestions for Screen Edge Snapping</p><p>A new version of Tiling Shell, the flexible window snapping assistant for GNOME Shell, is available. Tiling Shell v16.2 now surfaces nifty ‘Window Suggestions’, a feature introduced in last month’s v16.0 release, when using edge tiling. Edge Tiling (as no doubt you well know) is triggered by dragging a window to the sides of the screen. Window Suggestions for Edge Tiling is not enabled by default, so be sure to head to the extension’s Preferences panel to toggle it on (where you can also enable it for the key-drag tiling system method as well, if you like).

OMG! Ubuntu!<p>How to Disable ‘App is Ready’ Notifications in Ubuntu</p><p>Finding yourself annoyed at those ‘window is ready’ notifications which pop-up when you open some apps in GNOME Shell on Ubuntu? If so, you can disable them by installing a GNOME Shell extension. Now, notifications are helpful—heck, vital when they inform, alert, or indicate that something requires our immediate attention or actioning. But “app is ready” notifications? I don’t find them anything other than obvious. I’m not amnesic; I know the app is ready – I just opened it! They aren’t predictable either. Some apps show them, others don’t. It depends on the app’s metadata, how fast app initialisation is (you’ll see them more :sys_more_orange:<br><a href="https://hello.2heng.xin/tags/HowTo" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>HowTo</span></a> <a href="https://hello.2heng.xin/tags/GnomeExtensions" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>GnomeExtensions</span></a> <a href="https://hello.2heng.xin/tags/GnomeShell" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>GnomeShell</span></a> </p><p>:sys_omgubuntu: <a href="https://www.omgubuntu.co.uk/2025/02/disable-window-is-ready-notifications-gnome-shell" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://www.</span><span class="ellipsis">omgubuntu.co.uk/2025/02/disabl</span><span class="invisible">e-window-is-ready-notifications-gnome-shell</span></a></p>
