Public bug reported: I upgraded from 21.04 to 21.10 today and since then my manually installed gnome-shell extensions no longer work.
On the first login after the upgrade, I saw that my extensions are missing. I opened https://extesions.gnome.org to have a look at it's state, but had issues with this website (see Bug #1948469; I found a workaround for that later). I opened the gnome extensions manager. A couple of extensions have been shown to have pending updates, so I logged out and logged in again to start a new gnome session and have the updates applied. No updates are shown in extensions manager since then. However, the toggle buttons for all "Manually installed" extensions are greyed out and I could not enable any of them. I could enable/disable the extensions from the "Built-in" section though. I realized that there is a package called gnome-shell-extension-caffeine in universe so I installed it with apt, but the extension still shows as being disabled in the extensions manager and the toggle-switch is still greyed out. I can however, edit the settings of the extensions. I managed to get https://extensions.gnome.org working in the meantime and it shows my extensions, but enabling it there doesn't seem to have any effect. If I reload the page, the toggle-switch is just shown as being off again.
