So upon running

gsettings set org.gnome.shell enabled-extensions "['ubuntu-
[email protected]', '[email protected]']"

the previous

org.gnome.shell enabled-extensions ['[email protected]', 
'[email protected]', '[email protected]', 
'[email protected]', '[email protected]', 
'[email protected]', 'audio-output-switcher@anduchs', 
'[email protected]', '[email protected]']
org.gnome.shell disabled-extensions ['[email protected]', 
'[email protected]']

becomes:

org.gnome.shell enabled-extensions ['[email protected]', 
'[email protected]']
org.gnome.shell disabled-extensions ['[email protected]', 
'[email protected]']

So it seems that deleting extensions via the extensions app/firefox
extension settings interfaces does not work, even if they become
invisible. Note, I removed gsconnect in ubuntu 20.x i.e. at least a year
ago, one or two upgrades ago.

Similarly, these disabled extensions:
[email protected]' and '[email protected] still
seem to be installed. These should have been removed from my system
months ago. Is there a similar command that would remove those entries
also? Maybe:

gsettings set org.gnome.shell disabled-extensions "[]"

Nevertheless, the gnome-shell memory use continues to increase after
reboot:

12:47 249 MB
14:47 430 MB
14:58 505 MB
15:04 548 MB
15:38 784 MB
15:45 843 MB
15:46 853 MB
15:48 867 MB
15:53 900 MB

Title:
  gnome-shell memory use climbs to multiple GBs

Status in gnome-shell package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  Gnome Shell memory use grows over time

  Memory for Gnome Shell can be around 2.5 GB, sometimes more. If I do
  Alt-F2 r to restart shell, it drops to 250 MB and then slowly climbs
  up again.

  Occasionally it goes so high on my 16 GB machine that it swaps and
  crashes.
