TL;DR Summary

Google will disable old Manifest V2 Chrome extensions by early next year, transitioning to Manifest V3 for improved security, privacy, and performance. Over 85% of actively maintained extensions already use Manifest V3, including popular ad blockers. Users will see warnings starting June 3, and V2 extensions will gradually be disabled, with a complete transition expected by early next year.
