I've been using GNOME 3 for a while and I miss something like [KDE Activities](https://userbase.kde.org/Plasma#Activities) . A nice explanation about KDE Activities can be found on [this page](https://www.datamation.com/open-source/the-mystery-of-kde-activities-1.html) : > [...] when you take the time to learn about Activities, you'll find them a > natural extension of the desktop metaphor that just might help you to > work more efficiently. > > Activities are a super-set of Virtual Desktops.

[...] Is there something like that for GNOME 3? I would like to have an standard activity and another activity for studying.
