'Despite sharing a common Chromium codebase, browser makers like
Brave, Opera, and Vivaldi don't have plans on crippling support for ad
blocker extensions in their products -- as Google is currently
planning on doing within Chrome. From a report:

The three browsers makers have confirmed to ZDNet, or in public
comments, of not intending to support a change to the extensions
system that Google plans to add to Chromium, the open-source browser
project on which Chrome, Brave, Opera, and Vivaldi are all based on.'
