Google starts deprecating older, more capable Chrome extensions next week

Chrome's Manifest V3 transition is here. First up are warnings for any V2 extensions.

@arstechnica If Google wants to limit how often ad blockers can be updated, this is a win for malvertising as well.

@arstechnica Friends do not allow friends to use Chrome.

I only care about what other Chromium-based non-Chrome browsers are doing. For example, Firefox is quoted to have said they won't "turn off support for Manifest V2," which is a big deal. I just want my uBlockO to work!

@arstechnica Great time to move to , , , and others that are NOT deprecating V2. This is a shot at privacy and adblocking apps more than anything else Google swears it is for.

unhappy. I thought wasn't pivoting with mv3. I just got settled in this fucking browser.

@arstechnica If you're still using & aren't forced to, why?

Why are you hastening the demise of the internet?
