"This extension may soon no longer be supported because it doesn't follow best practices for Chrome extensions."

Hello, thanks for creating this tool. Recently Chrome web store said "This extension may soon no longer be supported because it doesn't follow best practices for Chrome extensions.", I found another the V3 of Switchy Omega here
Should I switch to this version instead?
Thank you again!

推荐使用 ZeroOmega 这个版本，不建议使用楼主推荐的，

我大体看了楼主推荐版本的 github 代码，都是拿的 zeroOmega 的代码，但故意把 zeroOmega 作者的提交历史都抹掉了，然后改了下软件名称，怀疑将来有什么不好的意图

I recommend using the zeroOmega version, not the one recommended by the original poster.

I roughly looked at the github code of the version recommended by the original poster, and found that they all used zeroOmega code, but deliberately erased the commit history of the zeroOmega author, and then changed the software name. I suspect there will be some bad intentions in the future.

It is recommended to use the ZeroOmega version. It is not recommended to use the version recommended by the original poster.

I generally took a look at the github code of the version recommended by the poster. They all used the code of zeroOmega, but I deliberately erased the submission history of the author of zeroOmega, and then changed the name of the software. I suspected that there would be any bad intentions in the future.

Thank you so much - this has some great improvements and seems to be updated regularly.

I have tested the following approach on Linux and it works for both Chrome 131.0.6778.69 and Chromium 129.0.6550.0:

1. Chrome - sudo mkdir -p /etc/opt/chrome/policies/managed
   Chromium - sudo mkdir -p /etc/chromium/policies/managed
2. Chrome - echo '{ "ExtensionManifestV2Availability": 2 }' | sudo tee /etc/opt/chrome/policies/managed/ExtensionSettings.json
   Chromium - echo '{ "ExtensionManifestV2Availability": 2 }' | sudo tee /etc/chromium/policies/managed/ExtensionSettings.json
3. Go to chrome://policy/ and "Reload policies". After that, it will allow you to add any V2-manifest extensions to your Chrome/Chromium
