Considering the community behind uBlock origin has no financial incentive, why are they still developing for chrome and manifest v3 while google keeps pulling off anti consumer and anti-adblock tactics, shouldn't they just drop chrome and orient people to use firefox or one of its derivatives.

gorhill already strongly suggests to use Firefox, but to drop Google Chrome altogether would leave millions of people stranded.

Maybe that would be a good thing, maybe it would force people onto Firefox?

You are underestimating how much bulshit people are willing to put up just to not have to make any change.
