From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

Do we have an extension apocalipse again, or is it a "bump supported version" type update?
The 2nd. And even then, you can just turn off version checking and extensions generally just work.
I can confirm. Updated on my laptop and every extension works so far.
Didn’t know that’s possible. How?
I've never actually done it, because the only extension I use is Blur My Shell, and the dev is so quick at updating that extension that even when I immediately update to a beta release it's already marked as compatible, but here it is:
gsettings set org.gnome.shell disable-extension-version-validation trueAnd if you want to revert back to normal and have extensions be validated again:
gsettings reset org.gnome.shell disable-extension-version-validationI don't know if there's a GUI way to do it in one of the extension management platforms, I've never really looked
