How to make gnome extensions addon work? (lemmy.ml)

I tried yet most common steps: installed the addon and gnome-browser-connector, linked ~/.mozilla/native-messaging-hosts into ~/librewolf/, but still get No such native application org.gnome.chrome_gnome_shell on gnome extensions page. Any clues how to get it work?

Does ~/.mozilla/native-messaging-hosts actually contain the gnome connector .json file?

Usually packets don't install files into the users home. You have to see where the packet put the json and then link it into the native-messaging-hosts directory.

(And finally link that to .librewolf as you already did)

in ~/librewolf/native-messaging-hosts/ is the same json connector as in ~/.mozilla/native-messaging-hosts/. I can install gnome extensions from Firefox without any problems, but not from LibreWolf.
