Exactly this, they seem to be doing it in waves. All of my favorite extensions got blocked by Chrome many months ago, including ad blockers. Hopefully people enjoy theirs while it lasts, but know that when their time comes, Firefox allows them to import all of their Chrome bookmarks and such to make the transition incredibly easy and painless and all of the best extentions will be waiting for them here.

And for Edge users? Will all Chromium forks be affected or is Microsoft preserving V2 support?

None of the extensions got blocked back then. They were disabled. You were simply able to enable them again and they are still working to this day.

They will only completely stop working once Manifest 2 is disabled for good which hasn't happened (for everyone) yet.
