As a proxy extension developer, this is absolutely maddening. We're forced to choose between auth-less open proxies (bad), or baking in a wacky authentication scheme through a side channel (also bad). MV3 drops in 2.5 months, and will leave tens of millions of proxy extension users unable to use products they paid money for. This is all on top of the many other issues with MV3 that Google is pushing under the guise o…

It's telling that the last action from a google employee on the list was ... removing themselves from the notification list.

that doesn't fix the problem, though.
Doesn't it? Product A is bad, thus use Product B. That's how most of my problems with different products are solved.
And there's also a product C, D, E but when you check them out you realize they are essentially clones of product A?

Have any of the Chromium forks committed to maintain MV2 into the future? Having functioning extensions while maintaining the other features that people like from the browser could help pull some marketshare from Google Chrome. Probably just dreaming though...

Once upon a time many years ago, Chrome was marginally better than Firefox. That time has long since passed. I know, I switched from Firefox to Chrome and used it for a couple of years, but Firefox got better and Chrome got worse, so I've been back on Firefox for many years again now. If Chrome doesn't do what you want or what you like, use Firefox. It does everything Chrome does, and more.

Firefox supports all DRM content I have come across, clearly there are ways to implement DRM that don't involve Google.
Depends on the browser and platform. WideVine support on Firefox for Linux is limited, one of the biggest effects of this is that some video platforms refuse to serve up high definition video to Firefox users on Linux. Netflix, for example, will only allow you to watch video at 720p on Firefox for Linux. The existing WideVine support comes directly from Google.
