    They disabled it with flags, but manifest V2 still existed in the code and could be enabled. This is about Google now removing V2 from the code. That will make it harder for third party browsers to include V2, since they would need to patch it back in and develop new patches to keep it working.

      The point was made very strongly at the time. Don’t use a Google driven chrome project. You don’t have that issue on Firefox or its forks.

        I have NO idea why Firefox has such a low adoption rate. I’ve been using it ever since Netscape Navigator was outdated and ive never had issues with it. uBlock Origin on mobile, baby!
