On Budgie can/should I install gnome_browser_connect

No such native application org.gnome.chrome_gnome_shell

Have you activated the third party repository?

# preinstalled on the fedora WS, with opt in on installation.
sudo dnf install fedora-workstation-repositories

Thanks!

Package was already installed, so yes it probably was.

 sudo dnf install org.gnome.chrome_gnome_shell

You can try to add to command line:
  --skip-unavailable to skip unavailable packages

That package is gnome-browser-connector and it can be installed with sudo dnf install gnome-browser-connector

I don’t think gnome-extensions will work with budgie due to the differences in the desktop environments.

Ah, thanks! that might be it. Alway thought Budgie is a wrapper around Gnome (just like the windows 11 interface still is NT :smiley: )
