Right. There's been a lot of FUD on this and not enough has been explicitly said. I'm pretty sure this was clearly stated in some places, but FUD spreads easily :)
Maybe I can convince someone to write something about it.

I think one thing missing right now is having good "release criteria" for WebExtensions (like we did for e10s) - I don't think implementing every single API that's available to old-style extensions right now is a tractable problem (since it's "every internal API", all the way up to executing arbitrary commands).
- Manishearth 10y agoI had a chat in #devrel :) yes, of course, its not every internal API but the bottom line is that most extensions should still work, right? :)
