In a new installation of EOAN it's not possible to install gnome extensions in Chromium. You get this error message "Although GNOME Shell integration extension is running, native host connector is not detected." Refer documentation for instructions about installing connector." The method advised in the instruction "GNOME Shell integration for Chrome Installation Guide" $ sudo apt-get install chrome-gnome-shell isn't working.

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.
