      technically they had them then they went away then they kinda came back and now they’re fully supported again (and i say this as someone who loves firefox/fennec on android :))

      And yet they introduced nonsense restrictions on them after overhauling the interface few years ago.

          Well, it was about compatibility years ago, too. But when they did the Fenix project, I remember initially only about 5 extensions were available to install, even if they could’ve allowed more with the APIs available back then. Then it took years again to get access to the full store of extensions.

          Edit: also, where did themes go? It isn’t that hard to overlay a horizontal image on the toolbar like before.

            You seem to know a lot, have you sent them a pull request yet?

    Right now Manifest V2 is disabled on Chrome, but the code is still in the engine. MV2 will almost certainly only exist in Chromium browsers until Google gets rid of it entirely. That includes Edge.

    The only browser committed to MV2 in the long run is Firefox. And it’s supported on Android and PC.
