Chrome's Manifest V3 transition is here. First up are warnings for any V2 extensions.

I went back to FireFox way back when the announcement of V3 killing adblockers in chromium first was made. I could go without everything else a browser offers, as long as it has ad blocking.

I legit want AR glasses for the same thing; to block ads IRL.

Literally just gave up brave for Firefox two weeks ago just for that reason even though brave isn’t supposedly gonna be affected. I have no doubt Google might deliberately just break chromium one day once and for all.

I actually really like the AR glasses idea. That said, They need to be open source and de-spookified, and there needs to be some kind of regulation that they can’t store or transmit images without first displaying a recording indicator.

It’s probably not going to happen like that, though, so I’m not mad existing ones have such bad battery lives.
