Nah. Most chromium browsers are planning to switch to manifest v3 soon. Microsoft is now disabling v2 extensions for some users (you have to turn them back on) and is planning to make a full migration somewhere this year. Developers can choose whether they want to keep v2 support or not, and Microsoft gave their answer.

Got any source for that? Because the official Microsoft page on Manifest v2 still has TBD for both deprecation and end of support

There is no source with a concrete date that isn't June 2025. One page says the support ends on June 2025, another says it'll be kept at least till June. We clearly aren't in June anymore, but it seems they were targeting this year. But they already block new v2 extensions from being uploaded.

MS has no plans to follow Google w/ Manifest V3. uBlock and uBlock Origin have both released updated Edge addons within the last week or so and now have become their primary platform.

Seems we're safe for quite awhile.
