Press F on Chrome. tl;dr: Chrome is breaking ublock origin, and umatrix. Google employees in the thread are ignoring performance benchmarks deconstructing their stated reasoning and are instead just forcing the change through.
Does that include Firefox post XUL/XPCOM since they've decided to ape Chrome's already gimped addon system?

Daily reminder that Microsoft Edge, Vavaldi, Brave, Iridium, and Opera are all based on Chromium or some derivative thereof. (Brave is based on a 'security hardened' fork of electron) meaning this change is upstream from all of them. :^)

yea but all chromium browsers still phone home so it redundant from a privacy stand-point

Ungoogled-Chromium removes Google's tracking. Chromium vanilla even downloads and executes binary blobs from Google at runtime. Iridium is arguably redundant because Ungoogled-Chromium adopted the Iridium hardening patches and Ungoogled-Chromium always has newer builds.
