Hello guys, I really like the modifications Ubuntu does to Gnome, and when I add a few extensions it becomes perfect.

Today I thought, could I replicate this entire setup that I like, on Debian?

I had nothing better to do, and the answer is yes. It doesn’t do any crazy ricing, as I mostly focused on usability tweaks and automatic installation of my must-have extensions. (Tiling, clipboard manager, dash to dock, desktop icons)

This separate script sets up dash-to-dock to switch workspaces upon scrolling + clicking on a running app minimizes it/shows previews of multiple apps in the same group + middle clicking closes the running app. It could be useful for someone who likes the way Ubuntu’s dock behaves and doesn’t want to go through dash-to-dock’s settings.

In case anyone likes the idea and their distro is not Debian/Ubuntu, the script is basically distro-agnostic if the versions of extensions get changed according to the Gnome version your distro ships with.
