same, but it does have a warning: "This extension may soon no longer be supported because it doesn't follow best practices for Chrome extensions."

No, it does not. Firefox still fully supports those manifest v2 handles.

People keep saying that and it's true. Also every extension on firefox that I installed said "I need permission to do whatever i want with your browser", which made me really uncomfortable

My response was to a comment that it's still available on chrome store. I no longer see that comment.

Assuming it was deleted, does HN change parent comments if parent was deleted? - that's misleading.

I didn't comment on firefox at all.

That's not possible as far as i know; What is possible, is that the original commenter EDITED their comment to a different text, soon after they posted it.

Afaik deleted comments do not affect the hierarchy - comments are still shown as children of a comment that is marked as deleted and has no content.

It sure looks like you replied to the wrong comment by accident.
