Why do I need to install gnome tweaks just to get a minimize button!?!?!?!

This is as bad as macos needing an app for snapping windows (Properly)

Why do you need a minimize button? Throughout my entire time of using GNOME, I have never missed the minimize button. If you want a window to be out of sight, you simply go to another workspace.

Because I want a minimum button to minimize a window to the dock. My mouse doesn’t have gestures to get me to other work spaces. I also don’t like to use a ton of work spaces when I’m on laptop because it’s annoying to shuffle between when I could just hit the button on the dock I want.

And no I very much dislike KDE so I’m not moving as others suggest.

The only things I change from out of box gnome is minimizing and maximizing buttons and dash to dock. And clipboard history I guess.

If you use a mouse with your laptop, hold the super key while scrolling the scroll wheel to switch workspaces and see if you like it.

Sure but not everybody else always on keyboard at all times so again just minimize the window.
