Bad headline. Popular ad blockers have already switched to MV3, and MV2 has already been disabled for all users.
I was under the impression MV3 is stricly less capable in terms of blocking ability than MV2?
MV3 is not an improvement over MV2 for the purposes of ad blocking.
Most would not consider MV3 versions as ”adblockers” anymore.
The headline is correct. The popular ones like uBO are 100% dead on Chrome thanks to googles coercion.
They didn't just "switch". They had to fundamentally change how they block ads and the new version the adtech company forced upon everyone...drumroll...is less effective at blocking ads. What a coincidence!
Per uBlock:
>uBOL will be less effective at dealing with websites using anti-content blocker or minimizing website breakage because many filters can't be converted into DNR rules
