Adam Niedling: That's a long story. Very briefly, about 2 years ago the
GNOME project, which develops Nautilus, decided to remove support for
desktop icons from Nautilus, controversially:

Ubuntu still wants desktop icons, so
I think most of us agree it was an undesirable change. It was made by
the upstream developers a couple of years ago now. The reasoning is
detailed in https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/nautilus/-/issues/158
We can't just reintroduce nautilus-desktop either. The change was huge,
a long time ago (so
I didn't about that bug.

"The desktop is not handled by nautilus anymore, that's a bug in the new
gnome-shell-extension-desktop-icons component."

I'm using Ubuntu 20.04.
On my desktop, Delete (which moves the item to the Recycling bin) just deletes
it.
Shift+Delete (which deletes the item permanently) does ask.
To me, this is correct behaviour and shouldn't change.
But...

There is no Recycle Bin when pressing Shift+Del. The file just goes away
without confirmation.
And Nautilus does ask you when pressing Shift+Del. So should the Desktop.
When pressing just Del then the Desktop should give the option to Undo
it. If you want the same behaviour as Nautilus.
