5. Custom Hot Corners – Extended
This extension offers a huge collection of actions that allows you navigate and control the GNOME Shell environment and windows and launch applications and scripts not only through the corners and edges of your monitors, but also using the custom keyboard shortcuts.

6. Vitals
Vitals offers an easy way to monitor your computer’s temperature, voltage, fan speed, memory usage, CPU load, storage and more. It is an aptly named extension giving you all your essential system information.
The configuration options are particularly useful including the polling intervals, the option to select which sensors to show, and more.
Monitoring storage didn’t seem to work on our system. We’re not sure if this is an issue with the version of GNOME we’re running. Share in the comments section if this functionality works for you.

7. Net speed Simplified
Net speed Simplified is the neatest network traffic monitor. We particularly like its clean user interface. There is plenty of customization to tailor the extension to your liking.

8. Clipboard Indicator
This extension is a helpful productivity extension.
Clipboard Indicator adds a clipboard indicator to the top panel, and caches clipboard history.
It’s very simple and easy to use, but would benefit from a few more options.
Features include:
- Configurable history size.
- Configurable preview size.
- Change the refresh interval.
- Define the maximum cache file size.
- Option to cache only favorites.
- Private mode.
- Keyboard shortcuts – toggle the menu, clear history, go to previous entry, and go to next entry.

Just seems u missed Tiling Shell – since its the best GNOME Extention vor tiling…
Agreed, Tiling Shell is very useful. It’s been added as 42b 🙂
Of them all, Dash to Panel is my #1 favorite. 🙂
Hi Torin.
This roundup probably needs an update. I think quite a few are no longer developed or might not work any more.
I’m only running GNOME on one system these days. And that’s mainly because its integrated Remote Desktop is first class giving silky 4k video playback which most (or all?) of the other remote desktop apps cant do in Wayland.
