Invest in more open platforms. Not a great short term solution, but not many alternatives.

Microsoft threw in the towel, discontinued their web browser development and became a Chromium fork. How are these extension developers supposed to invest enough in platforms that complete with Chrome to succeed?

Their platform still does compete, it's a separate web store run by a separate entity and in fact for extension developers it makes ports even easier.
