Google is forcing an update from manifest v2 to v3. With the most important functionality built into Vivaldi, it will have a limited impact. Those running extensions not supporting v3 will be affected.

    The article is basically : We have our own inferior adblockers so don’t panic when UBO stops working.

      Still good to have, but too bad they couldn’t just piggy back off of Brave’s soft fork or something and keep the functionality.

        For them to peggy back of a competitor work would be a bold and very risky move.

          Like everyone using an advertisement company’s browser engine?

            Too bad that Mozilla now also owns an Ad network.

            You’re right, Firefox deserves a little blame for that. :-P

    I don’t know how important this is to users of Vivaldi, and I don’t know how good Vivaldi can make their blocker by middle of next year, but this may force me to Firefox. Or maybe someone makes a local proxy like in the old days to do ad blocking Idk.
