While companies like Google and Microsoft have dropped support for classic MV2 extensions already or are about to end support, some developers announced plans to continue supporting some or even all classic extensions.

Of all the major browsers, it is only Firefox that continues to support MV2 extensions. Mozilla has just reiterated that this is the case stating “Firefox support for uBlock Origin is not going anywhere.” on X.

As far as Chromium-based browsers are concerned, Brave plans to continue support for some extensions only, including uBlock Origin. Opera Software also claims to continue supporting MV2 extensions.

There are a few lesser known browsers, Thorium and Supermium, which pledged to continue their support for all MV2 extensions.
