Since updating to Ubuntu 21.10 the automount (and therefore the Gnome Extension "Removable Drive Menu") doesn't work. I have to open Nautilus and click on the SD card entry to mount an SD card. How can I have the automount feature of all Ubuntu revisions since I started using Ubuntu with 10.04, back.

Be aware that this is not a duplicate of internal sd card reader works, but without automount as that, nor any of the similar posts, doesn't offer a way to automount an SD card in 21.10.

Try this: Eject and remove all external drives. Check none is left:

ls -l /media/yourlogin (or sudo ls -l /media/yourlogin)

sudo rmdir /media/yourlogin

Insert your external drive. /media/yourlogin should be created again.

I had this issue after I changed my UID.

I found that running lspci -v somehow triggers the mounting of the SD card.
