Hi,

Hi. I recently upgraded to Fedora 35. I would like to change two
behaviors
back to what I had before:
1) when I mouse up to the hot corner, the application dock is now at the
bottom of the screen. How can I get the dock to position itself vertically
along the left side of the screen? I've tried a few gnome extensions but
none I can find does that (except when floating the dock, which is not what
I want).
I don't know about this, as I don't make use of the dock.
Hopefully someone else will know a way to do what you want.
If there isn't an easier way to move the dock, maybe the
dash-to-dock extension could be useful?

That doesn't look to be packaged for fedora, so you'd need
to install it from the extensions site or package it. :)
2) When I alt-tab I can get an application list, but not a window
list
(e.g. if Thunderbird has two windows open, I see one entry for Thunderbird,
not two). I think I used to use an extension called "Alternate Alt-tab" to
change this, but that extension doesn't seem to be available for F35.
The alt-tab extension isn't needed (and apparently hasn't
been for some time -- I only noticed that around f33 or f34,
as I used it as well). You can set alt-tab to switch
windows instead of applications.
This can be done via the keyboard shortcuts UI, but I find
it's simpler to do via gsettings. I haven't updated to f35
yet, but for f33 and f34, this is what I do (I don't expect
it has changed, but caveat emptor):
gsettings set org.gnome.desktop.wm.keybindings switch-applications "[]"
gsettings set org.gnome.desktop.wm.keybindings switch-applications-backward
"[]"
gsettings set org.gnome.desktop.wm.keybindings switch-windows
"['<Alt>Tab', '<Super>Tab']"
gsettings set org.gnome.desktop.wm.keybindings switch-windows-backward
"['<Alt><Shift>Tab',
'<Super><Shift>Tab']"
Bonus question: I can't find a weather extension for gnome
anymore. The one
I used to use was called "OpenWeather," I think. Is there a substitute?
I still see the openweather extension in the repos for f35:
$ dnf -q list gnome-shell-extension-openweather | cat
Available Packages
gnome-shell-extension-openweather.noarch
1-0.49.20210509gitd714eb1.fc35 updates
Is it not available or not installable for you?
