I was able to fix the issue. I have first tried to install some other nautilus-extension to see that that this works. I used sudo apt-get install nautilus-admin and sudo killall nautilus. Interestingly, after killing all nautilus instances, if I execute nautilus from terminal, it displays some more meaningful information:

yyy@xxx:~$ nautilus
** Message: 16:56:31.135: Connecting to org.freedesktop.Tracker3.Miner.Files
Initializing Nextcloud-client-nautilus extension
Using python version sys.version_info(major=3, minor=12, micro=3, releaselevel='final', serial=0)

However, even after getting the heartbeat from Nextcloud-client-nautilus extension - it still did not work. I tried to add another nextcloud-share (added new account), and for the newly added account/folder, the nautilus extension was working. So, as a next step I have deleted all accounts in the nextcloud-client app (there were some bugs that prevented deletion via gui, so i deleted the nextcloud.cfg). Afterwards, I could add my accounts to nextcloud-client and nextcloud-client-nautilus extensions was working properly.
