    Good S0ix support. At the moment, Linux mostly fails to sleep correctly on modern S0ix laptops, which happens to be most modern laptops.

    This means the battery drains incredibly fast, and S0ix features aren’t being used, which is unfortunate as it has potential for quick wake, lid closed actions and limiting battery drain while asleep (since S0ix can eventually hibernate automatically from a sleep state)

    Also the boot loader could be improved, systemd-boot needs to support secure boot natively so we can be rid of the slow, ancient and scary-looking GRUB.

    You’re talking about extensions.

    Extensions that don’t come from GNOME are not supported at all, they’ve made that clear. If they wanted to, they could just stop allowing third party extensions altogether.

    This is because they hook directly into GNOME Shell’s’ internal JS, which changes every release as they refactor it for performance or feature changes. Developers have a few months before release to adjust their extensions for the newer version.

    Personally, I just raw dog vanilla GNOME for stability, and it works fine.
