I'm not at all knowledgeable enough about this topic to understand what is really being said or the result of it. Like chromium won't support the v2 extensions anymore, but chromium-based browsers can add support for v2 extensions if they want to add that code separately, but would coders still update v2 extensions if chrome doesn't use them? And i think it says chromium will continue using v3 extensions so why can't the ad blockers be a v3 extension? And/or are there other aspects at play here?
Basically i just wanna know if the chromium-based browsers i use will continue being able to block ads?
