Stop using Chrome, it is adware at this point. Use Firefox or if that's too different, use ~~Brave~~ or Edge or a different chromium offshoot that isn't going to support manifest v3.
Weird that you tell people not to use Chrome because it’s adware but suggest Brave which is a crypto miner.
Man I just tried to throw out a Chromium fork that didn't use Manifest v3, I didn't realize Brave went off the deep end. Personally I use Firefox and Edge when I need to use Chromium and for work just because I find it's dev tools nicer.
