alt Hacker NewsNotably, Firefox is not removing v2 support (at least for now as of March 2024)
> Firefox, however, has no plans to deprecate MV2 and will continue to support MV2 extensions for the foreseeable future. And even if we re-evaluate this decision at some point down the road, we anticipate providing a notice of at least 12 months for developers to adjust accordingly and not feel rushed.[1]

I guess I'll be moving my work browser across to firefox as well (moved personal across a year ago when these shenanigans started)

Along with that, I'd hope they'll add needed support for proper adblocking even with v3 and beyond
To my knowledge the “big” chrome engine alternatives aren’t either. I know that Vivaldi and Brave plan on keeping around v2 as long as it is economically feasible
