Title:
  Installing GNOME shell extensions

Status in gnome-software package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  Installing GNOME shell extensions is quite painfull for two reasons:

  
  # 1) https://extensions.gnome.org is not working
  The original and time-proven method of installing GNOME shell extensions is 
not working in Ubuntu 18.04. 

  Even if I install the Firefox (or Chromium) GNOME extension, webpage says: 
  "We cannot detect a running copy of GNOME on this system, so some parts of 
the interface may be disabled." 

  
  # 2) "Ubuntu way" 
  Ubuntu integrated the GNOME extensions into the "Ubuntu Software" 
application. But there is no posibility to sort the extensions by popularity or 
number of downloads. There is even no way to filter the extensions with basic 
fulltext. 

  So the "Ubuntu way" is really pain to work with.

  
  # What you expected to happen
  The best would be if the https://extensions.gnome.org/ would work in Ubuntu 
by default. 

  
  # Software details
  I have fresh installed Ubuntu 18.04. GNOME shell 3.28.3.
