And practically, they don’t break every 6 months. Almost all extensions are patched weeks before the new version is even released.
E: so people actively want extensions to be practically useless and barely be able to change anything? You are lying. If they implemented that all we’d here is “hur dur Gnome wants to lock the system down”
You actually want extensions to be useless. What’s the point of them if they can hardly do anything?
You’re fundamentally not understanding how extensions work. They cannot be even nearly as useful as they are now if they have to go through a standardised API. No docks, no window management, etc.
That’s more acceptable than to have them break every 6 months.
No it isn’t.

You can always provide them with enough standardized APIs that don’t break, to make them useful. The situation that’s right now is unacceptable.
