There are 2 packages for handling gnome add ons.
gnome-tweaks and gnome-extension-app. If you install both then it is easy to make certain changes in the desktop and windows, though not all the extensions are functional on gnome 42.

I always use the cli so opening a terminal window would allow you to use sudo dnf install gnome-tweaks gnome-extension-app
