Google Chrome is killing more extensions than you think - is your old favorite on the list?
Briefly

Google's implementation of Manifest V3 for Chrome extensions introduces enhanced safety measures but also deactivates many unsupported extensions. The new platform aims to improve security by ensuring that only reliable extensions are available on the Chrome Web Store. While this move is seen positively for preventing malicious tools, it disadvantages users relying on specific extensions like uBlock Origin, which has been deemed non-compliant with the new standards. Users must now adapt as their favorite extensions may no longer be functional in Chrome.
"Google claims the new platform will better ensure that extensions offered in the Chrome Web Store are safe and reliable."
"Manifest V3 sounds like a positive step. We all want safe and secure extensions that run properly in the browser."
