You say the docs point to yes.  Can you reference where?  At least for hosted Supabase, I've not seen a way.

sure, from here: https://supabase.com/docs/guides/database/extensions#full-list-of-extensions

For context, postgres is new territory for me. I believe the solution would involve the `CREATE EXTENSION` command in the SQL editor in Supabase (docs: https://www.postgresql.org/docs/14/sql-createextension.html)

the missing piece for me is figuring out how to load the extension's files into Supabase's reach. Assuming all the above is actually on the right path 🤷‍♂️

I see what you linked... seems odd to me as unless you are self hosting I don't know a way of doing that.  But that is also the first time I have seen that link....

I was starting to think that was the way forward

just found this as well, validating the self-hosting approach a lot more: https://supabase.com/docs/guides/hosting/overview#database-extensions
