We have a lot of dependencies to be migrated towards MV3 compliance for our existing extension. I have a few questions that'll help us plan the migration better as we get closer to the timelines:
1. What is the exact date of Enforcement of MV3 on Chrome browsers? Currently it is mentioned as early as June 2024, but it doesn't mention any date -
https://developer.chrome.com/blog/resuming-the-transition-to-mv3 If we know the exact date, we can notify our customers and plan upgrading our extension from MV2 to MV3. The reason to postpone our extension release of MV3 is as there is lot of reliance on remotely hosted code and it is taking longer than expected time for us to migrate/prepare with alternative solutions.
Kindly provide an exact date, will it be enforced from 1st June 2024 or say 15th June 2024? Or is it further postponed?
2. What will happen if our extension remains as MV2 in June 2024 also, since enforcement is only on pre-stable versions of Chrome (Dev, Canary, and Beta), will it impact other Chrome users OR will our extension be blocked on Chrome Store itself during the pre-stable phase also? How long will it remain for pre-stable versions before moving to generally available versions of Chrome Browser?
Thanks,
Sarthak
