Does this mean there are no plans to remove the ability to sideload V2 extensions?
- Hamcha 3y agoMaybe not yet? Google already made having non-store extensions as annoying as possible (e.g. a nag every time you open Chrome that tells you to disable them) and maybe they think that's working well enough to dissuade people.
- gnicholas 3y agoThey nag every time you open Chrome? Terrible. I guess that's why I use Brave, which sideloads with no problem. Hopefully V2 will continue to be sideload-able there indefinitely.
