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.

My Gnome is in German and I do not know which point is meant by "Desktop":
The AI lied to me, as I booted a Fedora/Gnome VM and couldn't find that option. My only other guess would be maybe an extension like this was installed and forgotten about because I tend to do that
i installes forge (gnome tiling manager) and that had an option for it
