Quick Question: Will Supermium continue supporting uBlock Origin and other manifest v2 extensions?

Yes. I'm certain I can restore MV2 when the upstream removes it. I would have to restore it for Supermium 138 ESR which is due in August 2025, but if the upstream keeps it for 138, I would only have to restore it for Supermium 144 ESR in February 2026.

Good to know! Thanks for the response!

A cordial greeting to Win32ss.
I have a curiosity.

Gorhill will almost certainly stop supporting uBlock Origin for Chromium after 2025.
In Github,Gorhill has never published uBlock Origin for Chromium-based browsers in places other than the Chrome Web Store and MS Store.

So unless some independent developer decides to develop uBlock Origin for Chromium users will (probably) find themselves using an extension that will become abandonware over time.

Because for every stable release of uBlock origin for Firefox available,uBlock Origin for Chromium will lack at least 30 missing bugs/features.

Is it possible to know the countermeasures for all this?
TH.

Currently I can't find another countermeasure than that: taking it over after it gets abandoned.
If there are maintainers for the legacy addon for XP-compatible Firefox, then hopefully there will be for Chromium (MUCH bigger user-base) as well.
I wouldn't like switching to Firefox just to get that extension working (It's not just as good as Chromium for me).
