I’m talking about what’s in the title only, Google slowing down extension updates.
There’s no problem with MV3. My adblocker already claims the user experience won’t be impacted.
The main issue is that block list updates will have to be delivered via extension updates, which means the extension store provider is in control of how fast the block lists can be updated. So adblockers trying to keep up with Youtube might get slowed down by Google.
My point is that can easily be solved by just not using Google’s extension store. Microsoft has no reason to slow down Youtube adblocking updates for example.
Of course, Microsoft still discontinues MV2 too. But that’s not my problem at all, and also not the one in the title here.
