And since you won't be able to modify web pages, it will also mean the end of customization, either for looks (ie. DarkReader, Stylus), conveniance (ie. Tampermonkey) or accessibility.

The community feedback is... interesting to say the least.

It doesn’t seem to be targeting ad-blockers in particular (or other page customizing extensions), although that may result eventually.

That's just because they've learned not to say the quiet part out loud.
