Google is going to release new manifest v3. How could it harm uBlock Origin? And will Firefox and Safari become the only major browsers that fully support uBlock Origin?

I’ve been saying this for damn near 15 years. It’s odd that people migrated from Firefox to Chrome in the first place. Obviously not everyone who uses Chrome did that but I know quite a few people who did and are now talking about switching back. These are people who generally believe independent and open source is the best way to go too.
I migrated from Firefox to Chrome years and years ago when Chrome was lightning fast with a bazillion tabs open and Firefox had some memory leak that forced me to reload a couple times a day. I have since moved back and realized all my old problems are no longer a thing, but I can definitely see why some would have made the switch and never tried moving back.

Yeah that’s when Google was fucking with the Mozilla Foundation.
I temporarily moved to Chrome but back to FF as soon as it was reasonably possible.
From what I saw. It was more Internet Explorer to Chrome.
Back in the day Firefox wasn’t as polished as it was now. Think more Open Office than Libre Office.
All machines had IE and it sucked, crashed but was default. Then I tried Chrome and it was good. Then moved everyone to it since the alternatives weren’t as good.
Years later, chrome is still good compared to IE, but now Firefox is slightly better. For all intent and purpose it’s the same but some qol features here and there made me move.
But for everyone else they don’t want or need to move. So until it gets worse than IE they’ll stay.
