>Chromium 150 lost kExtensionManifestV2Disabled flag in the recent commit
So what are the MV3 alternatives to the most popular extensions, such as uBlock Origin and Violentmonkey?
>>
You've had 24 years to switch to Firefox, the fact that Firefox has 1.9% market share means that normies are fine with ads.
>>
>>108902089
uBlock Origin Lite
>>
>>108902089
And Tampermonkey, but you should switch to another browser with built in adblocking support.

Microjeet is one of the fast Chromium vendors to ship security updates. The rest are miles behind.

>>108902089
Just switch to Firefox, or Brave if you can't handle using something that isn't Chromium.
>>
>>108902089
Been on Firefox since 2009, still not a singular reason to swap to anything Chromium, had zero issues what-so-ever, both for personal usage and work usage.

>>108902107
Way inferior than regular uBO, it's even inferior than Brave's built-in Ad Blocker. Not only do you have to wait for the Addon update to get proper Filterlist updates, by the time the update releases you already lag behing uBlock Origin with Filterlists.

Install any Firefox clone stripped of telemetry. Problem solved.
Even in Mozilla's Firefox telemetry can be disabled and all the AI shit can be disabled with one switch. Rest can be tweaked in about config.
Another good alternative is using Tor browser without Tor. Telemetry and tracking were mostly taken care off.

Firefox took my sound away in 2017 because of bug #1345661 so it's kind of a nonstarter. Weird as shit because it was working fine before then, but Mozilla isn't known for thinking decisions through.

There's a fully functional port of the original ublock to mv3. If you're this worried about mv2 ending you would have already done your research so you could stay on chromium and learned about it.

RETARD ALERT

>>108902247
like it says
>webRequestBlocking is allowed on MV3 extensions if they are forceinstalled by policy or allowlisted via the command line
but webRequestBlocking is a mv2 api and will get killed, too.
>>
>>108902247
>why wouldnt the original UO dev do it
not enough incentive while there were workarounds?
>>
>>108902542
allowing webRequestBlocking in mv3 extensions uses the same workaround that still allows to manually install mv2 extension. neither extension will work from the chrome web store after chromium 150 -- will need manual installation.
>>
>>108902538
but I need that to be able to continue using chrome

>Unfortunately, we won't be putting code behind a compilation flag -- this would require us to keep the code around and, more importantly, we'd either need to spin up trybots with that configuration (very costly) or it would be bound to break (because nothing would be on the CQ, so it wouldn't be guaranteed to compile).
>We won't be removing all the MV2 code wholesale right away, so many of these things will continue working for awhile (but they will go away eventually, and some may go away sooner than others).

fake news.
adguard mv3 tried to, then google almost banned them, and now adguard mv3 is like ubol, not ubo:

>February 3, 2025
>To comply with Chrome’s strict remote execution policy under Manifest V3, we’ve had to make some tough decisions. Custom filters are temporarily unavailable, and the Quick Fixes filter has been removed for good.
>Why? Because Chrome’s policy prohibits injecting scripts or remotely hosted code. While the intention behind this policy is good, the wording is so broad that even ad-blocking rules can fall under these restrictions — and unfortunately, both Custom filters and the Quick Fixes filter did.

>>108902771
You could have just installed it and tested it yourself
Both element blocking and user rules are still in

So injecting remote code is impossible, but they also demanded that text is not to be injected either? Soulds like they just want to prevent declarative approach to blocking as well.

>>108903060
The barrier to write an unpacked MV3 extension with a DNR ruleset and whatever CSS/JS you want to inject is extremely low. You don't even need a special "Developer Edition" browser like you do with Firefox.
>>
>>108902126
this, if you can't switch to firefox you should be on edge. I used edge without issue for a year. I just missed all the extensions firefox has too much to keep using it. But you need tabsessionmanager because edge WILL crash and make you lose all your tabs

>still no 10bit video suppport
I just encoded a 10 bit h265 file and it plays just fine, same with av1 (not supporting 10 bit in av1 which has it in the main profile would be breaking the spec btw).

>>108902121
>still no HDR support
Literally in beta right now:
"High dynamic range video is now supported in Firefox on Windows 10 and 11 for HDR displays connected to AMD and NVIDIA GPUs (notably this excludes Intel+NVIDIA laptops for now), work is underway to enable this feature on more GPU vendors. To use this feature you must ensure that HDR mode is enabled for the relevant displays in Windows Settings - Display. HDR videos may appear brighter in Firefox than in other browsers, which will be improved in a future release, as well as optimizations for performance."

>>108902781
follow your own advice.
those are the same restricted element blocking and user rules as ubol.
advanced ad block rules count as scripts so you cannot have those. no comparison to ubo.

The best alternative to MV2 uBlock on MV3 platforms for most users is probably going to be AdGuard. AdGuard can also run trivial userscripts with #@# syntax, It's overall a less ideological project than uBlock or ABP. A couple times per year there will be a small badge nag for a discount on their VPN or something. I cannot bring myself to care about this when the alternative is uBlock "Chastity Cage" Lite
>>108902192
For users on Google Chrome Official Build Stable no. Following in the footsteps of Firefox they killed the ability to properly install extensions outside their store without fucking with text files,
>>108902247
Because gorhill has been acting in bad faith about several things for years in an attempt to make it look like Firefox has a better extension platform. It doesn't. It's actually worse. Among other things, extensions can never access (read: protect you from) local files, and eval('') is still allowed to assrape you.

bullshit, that's for the adguard app, not any adguard browser extension.
https://adguard.com/kb/general/extensions/#userscripts
"You can add your custom scripts or manage the existing ones in our three products: AdGuard for Windows, AdGuard for Android, and AdGuard for Mac."

> It's overall a less ideological project than uBlock or ABP.
why should my adblocker also be a limited userscript manager? actual userscript manager like violentmonkey exist.
>>
>>108904136
I was slightly wrong about the syntax but the feature very much exists and is supported by the browser extension.
