I've used so many GNOME and GNOME-based desktops over the years that I can't even recall them all. One thing that has been constant over the years is that GNOME is far more useful than you might think. Sure, it looks minimal, but that's all about getting out of your way and not stripping down features. One of the cool features of the GNOME desktop is the search functionality. At first blush, it seems the search tool is just a means to locate the app you want to run.
New features include an enhanced search panel, which comprises popular searches, recently viewed items, search options for publishers and other categories outside games, and an advanced search tool. The horizontal search panel now stays at the top of the client no matter where you are within Steam, making it easy to access at all times.
Not long ago, a storefront sign was the most important marketing channel a retailer had. If you didn't have one, customers didn't know you existed. Today, for mortgage companies, that sign has been replaced by something else entirely: search. But with borrowers now turning to ChatGPT and other AI tools instead of Google, even ranking on the first page may not mean you'll be found.
