In this video I cover how to install and use Gnome extensions in Fedora, Arch, and Ubuntu distributions using your browser.

Step 1. Install Gnome Extension Support.

Install one of the following browser extensions.

Chromium based browsers.

Firefox based browsers.

Step 2. Install Chrome-Gnome-Shell.

Install this using the Terminal.

For Ubuntu based distributions.

sudo apt install chrome-gnome-shell

For Fedora.

sudo dnf install chrome-gnome-shell

Arch based distributions.

You will need to install the gnome-browser-connector from the Arch User Repository (AUR).

Step 3. Download & Install Gnome Extensions.

https://extensions.gnome.org/

Simply find the extension that you wish to install and toggle the on switch, which will prompt you to install the extension.

Most extensions should start working straight away, but sometimes you will need to log in and out to start them.

Step 4. Manage Installed Gnome Extensions.

Install the Gnome Tweaks application using a package manager though a GUI software store or Terminal.

Ubuntu based distributions.

sudo apt install gnome-tweaks

Fedora.

sudo dnf install gnome-tweaks

Arch based distributions.

sudo pacman –S gnome-tweaks

Once installed, launch the extensions application, where you can manage and delete extensions.
