    Installed it, but I'm unable to use the gnome-shell extensions at https://extensions.gnome.org/
    Says the connector is not valid or something like that.
    Anyone else getting this too?

    Expect some extensions to be broken. Happens every time GNOME makes what are pointless changes to the plumbing of GNOME. They should stop just stop. If it ain't broke, don't fix it.

    The particular problem I had was caused by the fact the default Firefox install in Ubuntu is a snap.
    Uninstalling the snap and getting the Firefox deb in the repo fixed that.
    However, even if I can now install extensions from https://extensions.gnome.org/, it simply doesn't work...
    They get turned to off by something. :(
    Anyway, I installed that out of curiosity.
    I'm still using Debian Gnome.
