What software dock is that on your middle screen?
It appears to be the Gnome dashboard, part of the gnome desktop environment on linux
This is correct, just vanilla Gnome.
I don't know how you can use stock GNOME I find it really ugly
My recommendations as extentions would be
Dash to dock Blur by shell Gsconnect
I actually really like keeping the dock out of the way in the activities view, I’m not a fan of Windows/MacOS style taskbars/docks on the desktop.
Blur my shell is nice, but it doesn’t work properly on multi-monitor setups in Gnome 44 at the moment (there’s an open github issue about it). I definitely plan on reinstalling it once that’s resolved.
Gsconnect looks cool, I’ll check that out.
I genuinely really like stock gnome. The one thing it’s missing for me is corner/quarter tiling support. There are extensions for it, but they break other stuff like applications resizing together when side by side.
Not the person who you replied to- Dunno if you saw the news, but gnome is developing a feature that's a little bit like tiling that will include snapping to quarters of the screen, I'm really excited about it!
GSconnect is the gnome/gtk implementation of KDE connect, so if you have an android phone you'll need the KDE connect app on your phone, which you can find on f-droid (also unfortunately the clipboard sharing features don't work in modern versions of android, though that may be fixable with adb commands, root, or a custom ROM, I'm not sure. It drove me nuts until I went and looked up why it wasn't working)
I like your setup! The colors on your wallpaper are very pleasant
I used to use dash to dock until my most recent reinstall when I decided just to not bother- honestly I don't really miss it, I'm totally used to it just not being there now.
In fairness though I have a small laptop with a small screen, so the gained screen real estate is worth a fair bit to me, otherwise I might still just use a panel
Looks like GNOME’s default
