What does that sentence exaclty mean? Is it "Wayland in general" not supporting workspaces or is it "Gedit on Wayland" not supporting them? Or, maybe, "Gnome on Wayland"?

P.S: I know it's just my workflow. And yet it is one possible workfkow that should be considered design-wise.Last edited by Mez'; 01 May 2020, 07:53 AM.

Unfortunately their only developer is busy with GTK ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
Or do you mean the Gnome board should have the power to tell people (or companies) what to do?
Let's try how well that works:
"Why does the FOSS community spent so much time writing in forums? They should get work done!" -> I hereby declare that all phoronix forum members shall stop posting and instead work on Gnome Shell!
Ah, I see a wave of contributions incoming.

Anyway, without title bar Firefox shows on tab bar the close window button, and you can get it show minimize window button via Gnome settings. So I would call this a bug in Firefox. They did not integrate minimize window right click men button on tab bar, only enabled the feature button through gnome settings, even though the tab bar show close window button.
I am wondering why one can't just minimize the window by left clicking DE task bar icon, it would made sense and works like traditional left click on task bar active application button. Now left clicking opens the same many as does right clicking do.

I don't recall hiding title bar myself. I can get it back with F10, for a moment, it vanishes when I exit the menu. After a brief look at various settings in Firefox I did not find setting "always show title bar" or "toggle title bar".

Windows Explorer is mucher better in this question, unfortunately they have the problem with blury fonts on scaled apps.Last edited by Mez'; 01 May 2020, 09:43 AM.

But the level of fragmentation there is currently is a waste of resources. Lack of resources which is often the first justification for getting rid of some features (in need of maintenance, hence resources). What that is a snake biting its own tail.Last edited by Mez'; 01 May 2020, 10:04 AM.

My only frustration with it is due to GNOME's default tiling setup making it so I can't drag a window into a corner for quarter tiling. That's actually my biggest GNOME issue and I'm gonna feel very stupid if someone posts "well if you enable this setting here it'll quarter tile".
