maybe it is interesting that, before i got it working under wayland as I
want it to be, I reverted back for a while to xorg.

It was after I got the hints here to uninstall extensions, that I did
that, and only then got back to the wayland session.

I dont know why it should be, but it could also be that intermittently
using xorg might have fixed something, even though it sound strange.+


The information about the extensions is interesting... and strange. 
People need their desktop environments to do specific things.
The need for more extensions is mainly since Gnome made huge changes and 
introduced gnome-shell, which had many things of the previous gnome missing.
So it's natural and also necessary for many users to get that functionality 
back.

I normally dont install obscure extensions from the internet - but the ones I 
had solved also another problem. The fact that an update resulted in the 
nextcloud application being not working well anymore.
If I install extensions from regular ubuntu packages I am assuming they are 
fine to use.

Title:
  alt-tab doesnt work anymore after upgrade to 21.10

Status in gnome-shell package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  I want to swicth windows with alt-tab.

  This worked until before I just upgraded from 21.4 to 21.10.

  Now nothing happens anymore.
  In Settings -> Keyboard -> Customize 
  Shortcuts -> Navigation

  the Shortcut for "Switch Windows" is set to alt-tab, but pressing
  these doesnt do anything.

  Super-Tab works, but it switches applications, not windows.
