Google Begins Testing Extension Manifest V3 in Chrome Canary

On mobile i use brave, and when things break I switch to chrome. I tried Firefox multiple times, but I can't help but miss the swipe the address bar to go from tab to tab. I always revert back to chrome. So it's more of a convenience for me.

But if I had to choose between adblock or swipe to switch tab, then they made the decision for me. There is no way I can ever browse the web without an adblocker

...But mobile chrome doesn't support extensions anyway?

I use Blokada for adblocking on Android btw, and this change wouldn't affect that. Works fine.

Brave blocks ads natively, even on mobile. It's a pretty nifty browser for when you want chromium. Firefox mobile is slower in comparison, but their extension support is killer tbh.

> swipe the address bar to go from tab to tab

I never knew you could do that! How did you discover this feature?

In my case, by accident...
