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

Reminder to switch browsers if you haven’t already!

  • Google Chrome is starting to phase out older, more capable ad blocking extensions in favor of the more limited Manifest V3 system.
  • The Manifest V3 system has been criticized by groups like the Electronic Frontier Foundation for restricting the capabilities of web extensions.
  • Google has made concessions to Manifest V3, but limitations on content filtering remain a source of skepticism and concern.

    Stuff you need for work don’t usually need any ad blocking to start with so that would be good enough.

      Still feels bad that I need it to be installed, and more stuff in the future could require it. They were major sites that my business works with and does not own

          If anything, only using it for sites that won’t generate ad revenue costs them money.
