The desktop icons extension is infamous for crashing the shell, leaking memory worse than a 5 day old nappy and causing the shell to run like dog crap. Which is probably why Ubuntu ships it.

Drag & drop between the desktop and applications doesn't work, at least not consistently. This includes Nautilus windows.
Mounted volumes (USB etc.) don't appear on the desktop.
NB: this is all in Wayland sessions. Maybe it behaves better under X11, that I don't know.
