GNOME Bugzilla – Bug 699981
extensions are loaded after the first frames have been drawn
Last modified: 2021-07-05 14:15:00 UTC
This is kind of a problem for extensions that change the appearance of the shell, as the user will briefly (depending on how fast the startup happens) notice the change from the default to the extension's UI. This is the case for the extension that changes the 'Activities' label with a distro's icon (bug 649621), or for the Classic mode, or for any of the extensions that add and remove items from the panel.

Sorry for the noise, I "found" a bug in the migration script: https://gitlab.gnome.org/External/bugzilla-to-gitlab-migrator/issues/2
GNOME is going to shut down bugzilla.gnome.org in favor of gitlab.gnome.org. As part of that, we are mass-closing older open tickets in bugzilla.gnome.org which have not seen updates for a longer time (resources are unfortunately quite limited so not every ticket can get handled). If you can still reproduce the situation described in this ticket in a recent and supported software version, then please follow https://wiki.gnome.org/GettingInTouch/BugReportingGuidelines and create a new ticket at https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gnome-shell/-/issues/ Thank you for your understanding and your help.
