This solution will work for exactly a year. That&#x27;s how long google gives enterprises to migrate to manifest v3.<p>Source: <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;developer.chrome.com&#x2F;docs&#x2F;extensions&#x2F;develop&#x2F;migrate&#x2F;mv2-deprecation-timeline" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;developer.chrome.com&#x2F;docs&#x2F;extensions&#x2F;develop&#x2F;migrate...</a>

This seems like it&#x27;s too hard to tell friends&#x2F;family.<p>Is the go-to now just &#x27;install firefox&#x27;?

Finally some news that makes me think the Firefox has a glimmer of hope left.

First recommendation would be a pihole running anywhere you can run it, but if you don&#x27;t want to or can&#x27;t do that, you can use Steven Black&#x27;s ad list to create a hosts file to DNS sink ad&#x2F;bad networks locally:<p><a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;github.com&#x2F;StevenBlack&#x2F;hosts">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;github.com&#x2F;StevenBlack&#x2F;hosts</a>

&gt;key was added and will presumably stay forever<p>Nope, it will be removed after 1 year. There is a chance they delay it depending on how much the enterprises complain, but so long as all their big clients are migrated I doubt they care about the long-tail.

Question: Is it possible to run ad blocking at the OS level rather than in the browser? Requests to ad servers just never leave your PC? traffic from ad servers just never arrives at the browser?

Too bad the HN Flamewar detector removed this post from the homepage. The content is interesting, the comments are pointless bickering over browsers

Serious question, why is anyone still using Chrome? It&#x27;s so user-hostile and basically spyware at this point, it boggles my mind that anyone would intentionally install spyware on their computer.

How do you make sites that are only whitelist certain browsers to work under Firefox? Is there an app, extensions etc anything?<p>For some handful of sites I have to keep a Chrome install around

How many people are gonna do all this to get an adblocker working? How long is this workaround gonna be allowed by google?<p>What excuses remain for sustaining the chromium monopoly that allows this shitshow, and for using chrome and chromium derived browsers instead of firefox?

firefox is still the best browser.

Just stop using Chrome FFS.

Or maybe stop supporting Google&#x27;s quest to monopolize the web and use (and test against!) LITERALLY ANY OTHER BROWSER
