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.

      I’m realizing that was unclear.

      I meant google’s maifest v3, not firefox’s implementation of it.

        Ah, appreciate the clarification. I’d also just woken up and hopped on Lemmy, so maybe partially my fault 😋
