Mozilla’s Manifest v3 FAQ
The tone of this post concerns me.<p>What comes across is that Google is not collaborating with Mozilla over the Manifest v3 changes.<p>Instead of using and appreciating the engaged Firefox developer ecosystem we have PM conference rooms in Google mandating huge changes based on... well they've been shady so far about their choices on Manifest v3.<p>The other thing that keeps bugging me about this is -<p>We need a tiered App store for browsers. Part of the lockdown Google wants to do isn't wrong but its driven by having WAY too many bad actors and shoddy developers in their Chrome store.<p>If you have an opensource web extension, a reasonable community and with reproducible builds? You can use more powerful API versions.<p>If you are jrando bizplan #2000283 you get the kinda trusted tier.<p>Frankly if Debian had a web browser extension "store" with 20 things in it, I'd use that exclusively and turn off both the Chrome and the Firefox store 100%.
