I really doubt Brave will be able to support manifest v2 for long after chromium deletes that part of the codebase. Brave does not have the resources to maintain a fork in perpetuity. They are really just a reskin with a marketing team (privacy conscious individuals being the mark).

>They are really just a reskin with a marketing team I dunno their adblocker is the best one I've ever used. AFAIK they built it themselves.

  My policy is: don't talk about Brave. If Brave ever gets enough share to be a problem for Google et al. it will get ruined, one way or another.

    Yeah and Firefox is completely under Google control already through the funding chain.

It’s not just a reskin though…

How much is actually removed? And even supporting the single main callback uBlock needs would be very meaningful.

This same conversation is being held about Vivaldi as well, as they are subject to the same thing. Unless and until people move en masse to Firefox or other, the monoculture invites abuse by those who control it. This is the new milieu of control.
