Gnome Shell window snap to quarters of screen

August 10, 2022 by Magenaut

Gnome3+: How do I remove favorites from Dash via terminal?

August 6, 2022 by Magenaut

I’m guessing I need to edit one of the schemas available in gsettings but I don’t know which one. and when I listed all the schemas, there’s just too many of them.
