As Google tries to hinder ad-block extensions with their new platform Manifest V3, it seems to me Chrome or any Chromium derivatives are no longer a viable way to browse the web safely. So it got me wondering, how much big of a task would it be to still suport Manifest V2 on newer releases of Chromium? Maybe implement some legacy option for backwards compatibility with older extensions. I think it would be a great alternative to have, but I haven’t seen anyone coming up with something similar.
Why that date specifically?
Just wait for July 2025
Why. What happens during that time?
I have no idea. Another month passes
Most of these browsers use the enterprise policy of chromium.

Thank you for the clarification
