Can someone please fork BetterViewer, update to manifest v3, and upload to Chrome Store please before the v2 extensions are permanently purged? Thanks!

The current implementation of BetterViewer initializes with "webRequestBlocking", which is disabled in MV3.

I think it might be possible to instead use a "declarative_net_request" based approach, but when I was looking into migrating to MV3, I could only find a way to make it work for hard coded domains, instead of , it might be possible, but It was too annoying for me to want to figure it out.

Anyway, as is always the best option when dealing with anything involving MV3; switch to Firefox.

Understood. I didn't know that updating to manifest 3 would be so complicated. Thank you for the reply.
