Use gnome-tweak-tool. ON the "top bar" tab, select "show date" The
"windows" tab lets you minimize windows. Look at the various gnome
"show date" only shows month and day, not year. There doesn't appear
to be a "date" extension that does this.
I don't have a "windows" tab. Is it supposed to be alongside the
"activites" tab?
shell extensions. Go here
https://extensions.gnome.org to get
extensions that will let you add a dock and do other things to make the
desktop friendlier. I use the "dash to dock" extension, as well as "top
icons"
The "taskbar" extension looks good. I'm surprised it isn't part of the
core install.
Thanks,
Alex
