Notably, GNOME is usually packaged a few months after openSUSE and Fedora ship it.

In this case, it's actually a plus IMO. Giving Gnome extension devs a month or so to ensure that any compatibility issues are fixed is ideal.

I use GNOME without any extensions, so there's no benefit for me 🙃

I mean, technically I use AppIndicators, but I tend to just turn off system trays for all software I can. Steam is probably the only exception.

Gnome without extensions?? I could never.

Which extensions do you deem essential for yourself?

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.
