Maybe I am missing something here. But google is a well-known pull-the-rug-from-under-you type company, with a long proven track record of doing just that. Don't use undocumented, not officially supported anything from them. ever. Don't use apis that go against their stated goals. They WILL remove them. Unless MV3 has officially committed to a changed changed scope to allow this, it is irrelevant if it incidentally works.
- nightpool 4y agoI'm talking about features that the Chrome team has explicitly said time and time again will continue to work, like content scripts and user styles (cosmetic filters), and which MV3 never threatened in the first place. It would be ludicrous to consider these "undocumented". It's hard for me to see any other reason for gorhill to remove these features from the MV3 version of the extension except out of some perverse inclination to twist around the meaning of the Chrome team's words to support the conclusion that he obviously wants to find (that Chrome is trying to kill ad-blockers)—when in fact the *stated goals* of the extension team have always been the exact opposite (to provide APIs and extension points that allow ad blockers to continue to work)
