adblockers on chromium-based browsers were severely crippled by manifest V3. they're fine with extenisons (and apparently malware) as long as users can't effectively block their tracking/ads.

Adblockers are still working fine though? I’m on chrome with ublock and I’m not seeing any ads.
you're not using ublock, you're using ublock lite. it cannot do dynamic filtering, script blocking, or url parameter removal, among other limitations.
Why does that matter if he's not seeing ads. A severely crippled adblocker means that you would see ads during regular usage.
Additionally, Brave a chromium based browser has adblocking built into the browser itself meaning it is not affected by webextention changes and does not require trusting an additional 3rd party.
