Go right ahead, Google. I stopped using Chrome.

I use Edge as my daily driver so I don't care about this.

Yes you do, Edge is also decommissioning ManifestV2 and will have the same issues with Ad Blockers not working:

OK, well I stand corrected, thanks for sharing.

I use different browsers for different things. All have many tabs open, except DDGo, which I currently use to stream music. Probably ought to use it as my primary, but too much trouble to change at this time.

About a year ago it seemed that the new DuckDuckGo fully fleged browser, not just the add on, for Windows was something to really look forward too.
Seems fairly popular on Mobile, but as for DDG Windows, hardly hear anything about it? Did they drop the ball or something?

In principle it sounded great. Fast, private, no tracking blah blah, but after the first beta release, nothing. Or am I missing something?
