Chromium Web Store (from NeverDecaf/chromium-web-store) is pretty awesome. It helps some apps like Ungoogled Chromium to work great with the Google Chrome Web Store… And surprisingly, it has some really awesome features that exceed existing functionality of Brave, Chrome, etc.
One thing that I find particularly useful is the ability to stop or pause extension updates for certain extensions:
Could we please have these features implemented into Brave?
You got a vote from me for this suggestion.
Good extensions go bad. In the past, I’ve posted links discussing this:
Brave relies on Chromium - albeit a de-Googled Chromium. Extensions obtained from / installed through the Chrome Web Store automagically update. No user control is available. Contrasting / comparing: Firefox users can control when installed extensions update.
It appears Chromium-Web-Store (not to be confused with The Chrome Web Store) is - effectively - another extension. Brave’s focus on privacy should extend to building user control over when installed extensions update into Brave.

We definitely need to see some action on this front. If Brave really wants to move into its space and create a superior experience, this is a very highly needed feature.
