I see that you changed the link target. Good.

So it begins...
In my Windows 7 VM:



Here's hoping forks will consider supporting it longer.
https://support.google.com/chrome/t...-8-1-in-early-2023?p=unsupported_windows&rd=1

Firefox will be next, I guess...

 

I certainly won't be buying a new laptop to run a browser.

Im already sharing my time between Linux and Windows to get more used to Linux in preparation for the big Windows 8.1 shutdown next year.

It will be interesting to see how the Chromium forks deal with this latest twist along with MV3.

 

I fear that they'll have to follow.
As time goes on, the code will diverge so much, that you just can't maintain an MV2 compatible fork with a small team...
All MV2 extensions will disappear from the store as well.

Maybe Brave can manage, but then they'll need an extension store of their own.

 

Agreed, and how long will Firefox carry the Windows 7 & 8 banner before they drop support too, then it will be Pale Moon or Basilisk for browsers.

 

I'm not so sure about Pale Moon and Basilisk.
They already dropped support for Windows XP, so it's possible they'll abandon 7 and 8 as well...
Then there is only New Moon or MyPal.

But if your laptop can run Linux, go for it.
Certainly safer than an unsupported OS with a browser that is becoming more incompatible with "modern" websites (built using Google's "standards" ).
