      This, or the Tray Icons: Reloaded extension for GNOME, which adds the Steam icon to the tray bar. From there, you can click it and it shows a list of the installed games.

      If you are new to Linux, GNOME has quite a different feel from your usual Windows flow. I personally love it and would never swap back.

      (Off-topic, but If you would be interested in a gaming-oriented distro, I would recommend Nobara Linux - the official version looks fairly familiar for Windows users and it also comes with a bunch of gaming-related stuff preinstalled like Steam, wine dependencies, mesa drivers for AMD, etc)

    I don’t know but you can just hit the windows key and start typing the name of the game. :)

    Gnome doesn’t really encourage the use of icons on desktops…it’s an old way of starting programs and not really needed.
