Probably if you stick to an old version of Chrome before the change you will still be able to use the old best version of uBlock Origin.
Not sure whether Bravo is derived from Chrome or not.

Understanding Manifest V3 and the Future of uBlock Origin
Published: 26 September 2024
With the advent of Manifest V3 (MV3), many users are concerned about the future of ad blockers like uBlock Origin. Manifest V3 is a significant update to the Chrome extension platform, introducing changes that impact how extensions interact with web content. Here's what you need to know about MV3, how it affects uBlock Origin, and what alternatives are available.
What is Manifest V3?
Manifest V3 is the latest version of the Chrome Extensions platform manifest. It introduces several changes intended to enhance security, privacy, and performance. One of the most significant changes is the modification of the webRequest API, which many content blockers use to intercept and modify network requests.
How Does MV3 Affect uBlock Origin?
uBlock Origin relies heavily on the webRequest API to block unwanted content before it loads. Under MV3, the webRequest API is limited, and extensions are encouraged to use the new declarativeNetRequest API instead. This new API allows for predefined rules but lacks some of the dynamic capabilities that uBlock Origin utilizes for advanced content blocking.
Alternatives and Solutions
Continue Using uBlock Origin on Firefox
Use uBlock Origin Lite
Switch to Browsers Committed to MV2 Support
Explore Other Content Blocking Methods
Conclusion
While Manifest V3 introduces challenges for content blockers like uBlock Origin, there are viable options for users to maintain an ad-free browsing experience. Stay informed about these changes and adjust accordingly to ensure continued protection of your privacy and enhanced browsing experience."

It's not the least charm of a theory that it is refutable. The hundred-times-refuted theory of "free will" owes its persistence to this charm alone; some one is always appearing who feels himself strong enough to refute it - Friedrich Nietzsche
