🚩 Chromium 135.x Turns Off Manifest V2 Extensions

It finally happened to me. I allowed my Chromium Web browser to update to version 135.0.7049.42 (Official Build) (64-bit) and it turned off a group of my older Manifest V2 extensions. Fortunately, using the Extensions page, I was able to re-enable them all... but I believe I read at some point in the future, this re-enablement feature will be removed.

"If you're still using the app list on the Pixel Watch 3, you're doing it wrong
Switch to grid view if you seek efficiency; keep the list view if you like wasting your time."

related - This is why there should be a grid view for chrome browser bookmarks. Even on a huge screen, a grid layout is a better launcher than a list.

The "favorites new tab page" extension is essentially the solution. Only problem is I/we can't seem to reach the developer of the extension. If you haven't tried favorites new tab page, give it a go. It's really nice.

I am unaffiliated with this extension but I rely on it as a launcher for my browser bookmarks. It's been very reliable for the past year and I wish I had known about it 5 years ago when it was released.

If anyone can get in touch with the developer, please tell them to update it to manifest v3.

the newest review on the chrome web store:

"One of my favorite extensions. I primarily use it as a launching page for my bookmarks, but unlike most other extensions who show me what they want me to see, Favorites allows me to display exactly what I want in the size and layout that I want. Please keep this extension alive!" -

Dear Favorites New Tab Page Developers:

I hope this message finds you well. I’ve been using your "Favorites New Tab Page" extension and have found it incredibly useful. It has significantly improved my browsing experience, and I would be disappointed to see it go.

Recently, I noticed a notice from Google stating that the extension may no longer be supported soon due to not following the best practices for Chrome extensions. As a dedicated user, I wanted to reach out to express my appreciation for your work and to inquire if there are any plans to update the extension to meet the current Chrome Web Store guidelines.

If there's anything I or the community can do to support this process, please let me know. I believe there are many users like myself who would love to see this extension continue to be available.

Thank you for your time and for creating such a fantastic tool.

Best regards,
Mark

on chromeOS, do you miss having a full screen launcher for your internet bookmarks?

youtube.com/watch?v=8iMwFhFN6q

There is an extension which does this, but I'm nervous that it's going to go away because the developer has not updated it to manifest v3...if someone can please reach out to him...here's my current review:

Fellow users - Guys, what do we do to save this extension? Does anyone know? I can't seem to reach the developer...can someone please reach out to the developer to update their extension to manifest v3?

hi, your excellent chrome extension Favorites - New Tab Page is still on manifest v2 which google has seemed to add to a sort of chopping block.

can you please update it to manifest v3 to save it? thank you

if it helps, you could add a tip jar/donation or payment function. if not that, then can you open source it and release it to github? thank you.

if the developer doesn't do this, can developers who code make a clone of this app? feel free to reward yourself with tip jar/donations/payment functions. if not that, then can you open source it and release it to github? thank you.

the best. Its your existing bookmarks, but instead of a tiny sliver, you get a nice full screen grid layout with icons imported automatically, also allows drag and drop. you can also right click settings > themes > choose any dark background for a night mode / dark theme, easier on the eyes.
