Easy solution: Don't use GNOME
I have to if I want to use linux at work =[ I agree, I hate it
Damn, why don't they let you install something else?
Linux support is brand new and they want a small subset of things that they can be sure are compliant =[
Can you atleast install Flatpaks and GNOME Extensions? AFAIK these don't require root. Distrobox might also work.
Yeah I can install whatever I want, I do have root, we just have an agent that checks certain things before allowing VPN access.
So I do have konsole and Kate installed, but yakuake doesn't work very well with gnome and I need my drop down terminal
I see. Sorry for you that you have to use GNOME. But check out Guake if you're looking for a Quake-style terminal. Tilix also has a Quake mode. I'm glad I found a fellow Quake-style terminal enjoyer :) I actually need to use macOS for work and I'm very thankful I found an option in iTerm2 for a dropdown terminal. I honestly can't live without one.
Yeah I use guake, but it doesn't have the Ctrl shift k that I miss that was the point of this thread =D
Right I kinda missed that
