I find that a percentage of full charge is a clearer way to present this
data.

It used to be an option in the gnome Tweaks tool, under "top bar".  This
seems to be gone in Fedora 36.  You can get use this shell command:

   gsettings set org.gnome.desktop.interface show-battery-percentage true

This seems like useful functionality.
- why not make it the default?
- why remove it from tweaks?
- why make it so hard to discover?

I understand that gnome folks like to simplify things, but surely "tweaks"
is a great place to stuff useful options that are not important enough to
put in the main (simple) settings mechanism.

FWIW
I did a clean install of F36/Gnome.
On the right end of the top bar: battery percent text next to a picture of a battery indicating the same and whether it is being charged.
Quite nice
