Interesting to hear the authors issues with mv2/3.
I’ve run into the same recently, while trying to build out a simple PoC extension. MV3 seems to be vague, and many of the changes specified do not seem to have actually been implemented yet. Such as chrome.tabCapture being namespaced to chrome.capture. Or these are bugs, it’s unclear.
It’s certainly odd that the schedule for moving to MV3 appears to be underway (not accepting MV2 extensions) when I’ve found the only way to enable my use cases has been to downgrade to MV2 (as the author also found)
Edit: The bug report I found, but unclear if it’s going to be fixed. As conflicting announcements else where state this api will be moved to the chrome.capture namespace for MV3. But neither presently works.

- brunoluiz 5y agoYeah, I had the same feeling that MV3 has been rushed and is not 100% ready. The other issue as well is that Mozilla and Google roadmaps are quite different, so you might end-up having to support both MV2 and MV3 for a while at least. And even then, Mozilla will have some different APIs on MV3 (albeit they will be extra APIs when compared to Chrome). I am looking forward to see the state of things in December 2022.
