Status changed to 'Confirmed' because the bug affects multiple users.

Can you get a journalctl log?

Someone will probably need to file bugs against individual extensions that don't work with GNOME Shell 3.29.90.

For instance, there is this bug for Dash to Dock:

[Daniel van Vugt (vanvugt)]

I don't *think* that gnome-shell promises to maintain a stable API (?). I've added some extension-specific tasks here and am closing the gnome-shell task. Please add tasks for any other extensions that were installed from the archive.

https://udd.debian.org/cgi-bin/bts-usertags.cgi?tag=shell-3.30&user=pkg-gnome-maintainers%40lists.alioth.debian.org <- that's Simon's list of bugs filed in Debian, which is probably more or less the same in Ubuntu.

workspace grid is another one, though it's not packaged
