    I don’t currently see how going into a dockmode and then the app drawer is more productive than to have a small menu popping up with all I need at the push of a button. I also need to move between active windows quite a lot, which is why I also need my open apps in the top bar (which, luckily, is way less problematic to setup, there is an extension for that exactly)

    I guess it might be a matter of personal preference, but this is the key issue I have with Gnome, the rest is indeed good. The top bar, while inconvenient at first, does have clear benefits and I see how it might be helpful; the design language of the apps is something I adore, everything is tailored to be minimalistic, but powerful.

    But this exact part is not in my taste at all, and I do not appreciate being forced into a design choice that only causes me headaches.

    I’d like for the Super key to open apps menu, and then something like Shift+Super opening the dock/app drawer, and I’ll be golden.
