Google's Manifest V3 platform is clobbering many popular extensions. Here's why and what you can do about it.

    I only care about adblocking, so ControlD+Brave for me.

      Brave is a Chromium browser.

        Yes, but its maintaining support for these extentions… for now at least.

          The boat might be sinking but at least this plank still floats

            If all you need is a plank then a plank suffices

              Hopefully it will carry thebweight of you all.

              I think this analogy starts to fall apart like the boat in it

          As I said, I mainly care about adblocking. Shields (Brave’s adblocker) does an amazing job and doesn’t depend on MV2 or MV3 (it’s not an extension).

        That’s precisely one of the reasons I use it.
