Hello Dale, it seems most of the points are based on the loss of your previous settings.
The Gnome devs tricked us here by offering a platform 40 as successor of 3.38. You can think, 40 is the successor of 38, that should be a minor ungrade. But in fact it goes from 3.x to 40, a major jump with changes like moving the dconf location, gtk 3 -> 4 … Still undecided what to do: redo the bundle with runtime 3.38, John?
