Open-bar has to be my favourite Gnome extension in a while

A GNOME Shell extension for theming Gnome Top Bar / Top Panel, Menus, Dash/Dock, Gnome Shell and Gtk/Flatpak Apps. - neuromorph/openbar

I don't run a lot of extensions on Gnome, but this one is a great way to add some customisation to the desktop.

This looks great, just installed it. Now to figure out how to make it looks totally transparent with just the different buttons and shrink it a bit like in the project's screenshots
- In Top Bar Properties, select Type of Bar (Islands) and Height + Margins as needed

Blur my shell is pretty much what I use. I also have a wallpaper extension and knotifiersupport

Awesome. I'll see if it's a good replacement for Dash to Dock. Thanks.
Edit: Nope, but I can use them in tandem.

I'm new to Gnome, been using XFCE and Budgie for the longest time. Does this or any other extension allow offsetting the location of the date and time? A webcam attached to my monitor mostly blocks it.
- I can't check at the moment, but that sounds like something 'Simply Perfection' would be capable of.
  It's essentially an addon specifically for tweaking the appearance of gnome stuff.
