This replaces the Gnome Extensions app and the browser extension.

How to remove 'gnome-shell-extensions'?
If I remember correctly you need gnome-shell-extensions for the auto update to work in extension manager. https://github.com/mjakeman/extension-manager
- I'm getting this error on Arch Linux and I'm unable to install extensions. Any tips on solving this?
-
GNOME 44 is out now
You can use https://github.com/mjakeman/extension-manager to check whether your extensions have support for a particular gnome version from the upgrade assistant.
-
the gnome extensions website doesn't detect the gnome browser connector, despite having it installed as well as the browser extension
FWIW, the GNOME Extensions addon broke on Firefox 110.1 (installed natively) on Arch Linux for me too at least a week ago. I've tried troubleshooting why, but came up with little. I've concluded it's just dead for some reason, on my system at least. I have since uninstalled it and have been using Extension Manager instead to manage my shell extensions for the time being. No complaints here.

Can't install Gnome Shell Extensions
My suggestion would be to start using https://github.com/mjakeman/extension-manager instead. I think it's much better than the browser-based way of installing them.

Getting upset with Manjaro lately
Bonus tip: Extension Manager is an app to manage your extensions.
-
extensions not compatible
https://github.com/mjakeman/extension-manager can show you a list of compatible extensions before you upgrade, and it also allows you to search and install extensions without the browser extension.

Hey, does any bothy know how to solve this problem? Thanks!
Finally, you might want to check out the Extension Manager app, this makes managing extension easier in my opinion.
