Nowadays, the user interface has mostly stabilized with most changes happening under the hood. As a result, extensions written for previous versions of GNOME Shell are very much expected to keep working on updates, if it wasn't for the version check that requires a version bump in the extension metadata. There has been a setting to disable that check for a while, but it's existence isn't widely known (hence the common perception that "everything breaks on updates"). While there is still some risk that an out-of-date extension can be enabled without error, but fails spectacularly later (where we cannot catch the exception), it is reasonably small by now when compared to the ~95% of extensions that can be "unbroken", so swap the default value to disable version checks by default. https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=770887 |

GNOME Shell provides core user interface functions for the GNOME 3 desktop, like switching to windows and launching applications. GNOME Shell takes advantage of the capabilities of modern graphics hardware and introduces innovative user interface concepts to provide a visually attractive and easy to use experience.
