I'm closing comments on this post:
1. The STV is a new visa, and people who were issued them are just now starting to come up on the 90 day mark.
2. From the application itself:
"5. Proof of long-term accommodation after the 14-day quarantine. The applicant is required to provide one of the following evidences of payment which could be any of the following:
Proof of payment paid in full until departure date for hotel or accommodation to be used after discharge from quarantine and hotel’s contact details and tax ID number;
Copy of a condominium title deed owned by the visitor or a family member.
A fully paid residential lease in Thailand issued by the lessor showing the duration of stay, and the lessor’s contact details and tax ID number;
Evidence of payment for the purchase or lease of a condominium-type residence that foreigners can legally buy or lease."

I would assume the requirements are the same to get the extension of stay. However, we don't know.
3. *IF* the immigration office does require the proof of accommodation like I wrote above, and you d not need the requirements, you can leave Thailand, apply for an appropriate visa, and then return. Trying to convert the STV to another type of visa *WILL RESULT* in a person being blacklisted

For people who entered on the STV and are applying for a 90 day extension of stay based on tourism, *PLEASE* make a new post or send a mod a message with the following information:
1. Your nationality.
2. The specific requirements (including if they require a pre-paid booking), and the requirements that you used to get the extension of stay. Ideally, show a copy of the handout.
3. The immigration office used.
4. A picture of the 90 day stamp that was issued.
5. Any other relevant information
If you're thinking about getting an STV to enter Thailand, as a replacement for the old Multiple Entry Tourist Visa that's no longer being sold, please don't :( . Please always get the visa that matches the purpose of your stay.
Thank you.
