This can be done within the "Multitasking" settings. Here's how to configure it:

  1. Open the "Settings" application: Settings
  2. Select "Multitasking" from the left menu: Settings - Multitasking
  3. Scroll down a bit to "Workspaces", select "Fixed number of workspaces", then set the number to any that you would like.

    This works to only have one workspace but still have to click to get started. How do I get Ubuntu to start right to desktop. – treyiii Nov 21 '22 at 18:00

  • Those using Ubuntu 20.04 and have Gnome Tweaks - go to Tweaks -> Workspaces -> Choose Static Workspaces -> Set the Number of Workspaces to 1 – Asaf Feb 20 '24 at 15:55
