FOSS ceases to be democratic when a company like Google funds its development. I don't know of a fork of Chromium that declined to move to manifest 3, but there probably is one.

I don't know all the details but I believe uBlock Origin relies on very long lists of servers that serve ads and declines to download from them, and manifest v3 limits the length of those lists so that they have to pick and choose which ones. Hence the uBlock origin lite, the lists are shorter.
