They're much too big of a target now for spy- or malware. They have too much access to everything we do in a browser. And you can't just evaluate them once, they auto-update silently and you never know when they might be bought by a malicious actor.
I use a very limited set of extensions I trust like uBlock origin and Bitwarden. Also some developer extensions, but usually not on my main browser. Everything else is just not worth the risk for me.
