Brave claims they will maintain it in their fork but that won’t last long.
Developers don’t need to keep mv2 support, Firefox supports mv3 plus extra APIs on top.
And keeping the v2 (or v3+WebRequest) support in the browser is not enough, they'd also have to start running their own extension store since presumably the Chrome one will no longer carry such extensions.
