This happens on Installed and outdated extensions. I can search, view popular and recommended extensions. If more info is needed I am happy to provide it.

@isidorn maybe you connect with @JostCrow to debug this?

@JostCrow thanks for the awesome screenshot! It seems like you have a broken extension installed.
What happens if you delete all your extensions via the command line and install them again? You can do that using the following commands:

code-insiders --list-extensions
code-insiders --uninstall-extension ...
code-insiders --install-extension ...

I can put some null guards in the code - but I do not think that is the solution since the code is based that either this.local or this.gallery are not null. In your case somehow both of them are and since the original author is on vacation this week I am a bit puzzled.

Yes I will give it a try

I uninstalled all the extensions. It said that they where successfully installed.

Then I run --list-extensions again. This is what it returned.

HookyQR.beautify
bcmarinacci.theme-material
cssho.vscode-svgviewer
donjayamanne.python
robertohuertasm.vscode-icons

So these where not uninstalled.

Ok - let's try to manually remove them, if you go to your user folder you should have a .vscode-insiders\extensions -> delete everything inside and restart vscode

[JostCrow]

Ok

After uninstalling all the extensions and restarting the computer it works. Thanks.

Not sure how you ended up in that broken state, so I would leave this issue open so @joaomoreno can investigate next week once he is back.
Since you are the only one seeing this and since there is a workaround I am putting this for july
