A great video about the Manifest v3 and how Google is trying to make you view ads.

      Firefox will be using Manifest v3 or was this just posted in the wrong community?

        Firefox will be compatible with V3, but keeps compatibility with V2, unlike Chromium.

          Firefox is already compatible with v3, by the way, since version 109: https://extensionworkshop.com/documentation/develop/manifest-v3-migration-guide/

    Please Firefox, when mass migration happens, dont let browser monopoly get into your head and change your policy.

    I know the Ff code is open source and others can create forks. But still

      Here is an alternative Piped link(s):

      Piped is a privacy-respecting open-source alternative frontend to YouTube.

    I haven’t watched the video, but judging by the thumbnail, it’s complete bullshit:

      I’m not sure on your take of the link you posted but it quite clearly states the limitations placed on these extensions and how they can be rendered useless by the new rules.

      I can assure you that Google, an ad tech company with a near monopoly on web browsers, has an interest in eliminating ad blockers in the browser that they have direct control of.

      Actualpy manifestV3 is awesome as they reduce the permissions of extensions on the browser.

      That’s literally what kills the ad-blockers. You should watch the video that’s conveniently linked in the post you commented on, it’s only half an hour long and well researched.

        Yes. Technically, no, you will still be able to have a very simple ad blocking addon, but for all practical purposes, mv3 will kill ad blockers as we know them today.
