@kaplag I have a box for gaming and multimedia streaming and stuff. Every time I want to go to bed in the night, i need to fiddle around with the mouse to find and click (1) on the dock, then, the clicking the "Power Off/Log Out" entry in the dock menu to unfold it by clicking (2), followed by a click (3) on the actual "Power off..." menu entry, which spawns a pop-up to tell me that the system will power off in 30 seconds. If I want that faster, I can click (4) on the actual actual "Power off" button, which I usually do due to the fact that I want to cut the power to the whole multimedia system over night after the PC has shut down.

Even my partner complained about that lots of clicks, so there are some reasonable follow-ups to work around that:

1. complain on masto about that ;)
2. google for a stackoverflow entry, where others complain about that
3. install a gnome extension to get faster shutdown
4. dunno

Thanks for reading my little rant. I love and all you open source gals and guys.
