From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

I did a minimal Fedora 40 installation on my Thinkpad, so it's possible I missed some package... I don't have the Power entry in the notification settings; need that one to turn off the absolutely inane notification that the laptop's about to suspend.
Searched dnf for anything resembling power, came up short. Any idea what to check for?
you mean that they're on the left or what...? like 'em just fine there, I'm a macOS convert.
You can't even read the title of the window properly, and it's a short one! And there's this ugly scramble of icons all clustered on the left. This may work and you may be used to it but Gnome is certainly not designed to be used like that.
Hiding all the buttons as the poster above told you to do is worse though.
Why is it worse? On desktop there are shortcuts and on touch there are gestures. Those buttons are a relict from the last millenium
Because a significant number of people still interact with the desktop via mouse rather than keyboard shortcuts.
Hell, I use hot keys for most things but I still often prefer to quickly minimize a window with the cursor instead of reaching across the keyboard. The first thing I do with a vanilla Gnome installation is get Tweaks on there and restore window buttons.
