Extensions that don’t come from GNOME are not supported at all, they’ve made that clear. If they wanted to, they could just stop allowing third party extensions altogether.
This is because they hook directly into GNOME Shell’s’ internal JS, which changes every release as they refactor it for performance or feature changes. Developers have a few months before release to adjust their extensions for the newer version.
Personally, I just raw dog vanilla GNOME for stability, and it works fine.

Not just about extensions but also GTK4 randomly deprecating features in minor updates and icon pack issues.
