Doubt it. Ad blockers still work on MV3, just not as well. The vast majority of people won’t notice a difference and the ones that will are the same ones that probably switched already.
- doktrin 3y agoUnlike amorphous concerns like “privacy” that for better or worse only resonate with a niche audience, ads are by definition hard to ignore. Once users are forced to both potentially replace their adblocker entirely and begin mucking around with config settings and filter lists it seems inevitable that many simply jump ship. Doubly so if the advice gets amplified across social media / streaming platforms et al. The crowd you’re referring to - i.e who follow tech news and the manifest rollout - are a tiny minority many of whom probably never used Chrome to begin with. That’s not who I have in mind here.
- postalrat 3y agoIt won't take long for ads to start appearing that can't be blocked by a mv3 extension. I'm sure they have already been developed and are waiting for the switch.
