That doesn't solve the issue of ManifestV2 being removed though, Brave will have it removed at the same time as Chrome, when it's pulled from the code base

Brave have not promised to continue to support uBlock Origin ?

Brave has a built in ad blocker.

Firefox is still there, but Mozilla is adding AI slop to it too. I’d love to see an extension to disable all that stuff, or ideally get rid of it and make it an extension

Just use LibreWolf on desktop and IronFox on Android. They basically strip out all the anti-privacy, anti-user "features" from Firefox.

+1 for Librewolf, but this is the first time I've heard about Ironfox.

Moved to firefox and I am glad I did, I want to use a browser that respects my privacy choices

Apparently no one remembers when Firefox changed their terms of service literally this year to become adversarial toward their own users.

Librewolf is the way to go now.

nar001 is right. Once it is pulled from Chromium, Brave can no longer support it. Although, Brave's adblocking is just as good out if the box IMO, and it is implemented without the need for Manifest V2, so it will continue to function
