-# Kiwi Browser Next
+# Kiwi Browser
 
-Source-code for Kiwi Next, a Kiwi Browser auto-rebased with latest [Chromium](https://www.chromium.org/Home/).
+Important note: Kiwi Browser is now archived. It will be no longer maintained after January 2025.
 
-This repository is the control center for development, testing and deployment of new releases.
+The extensions code for Kiwi Browser has now been integrated into [Microsoft Edge Canary](https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.microsoft.emmx.canary).
 
-If you are looking into modifying or improving Kiwi Browser, you are at the right place.
+To install extensions on Microsoft Edge Canary:
 
-The mindset behind this project is that you should be able to modify and create a modification of Kiwi Browser directly from within Kiwi Browser (without the need of a computer).
+1. Open **Microsoft Edge Canary** and go to **Settings > About Microsoft Edge**.  
+2. Tap the **Edge build number** (e.g., `xx.0.2487.0`) 5 times to enable **Developer Options**.  
+3. In Developer Options, select **Extension install by id**.  
 
-Keep it in mind, if you need a computer to do a change, it means it's too complicated. Even rebasing should be doable from the GitHub user interface.
+To find the extension ID:  
+- Open the [Microsoft Edge Web Store](https://microsoftedge.microsoft.com/addons/Microsoft-Edge-Extensions-Home).  
+- Locate and select the desired extension.  
+- Copy the ID from the URL (e.g., for Bitwarden, the ID is `jbkfoedolllekgbhcbcoahefnbanhhlh` from the URL ending).  
 
-Servers are paid-for and sponsored by Geometry OU (the company behind Kiwi Browser), and additional computing hours for contributors are provided for free by Microsoft Azure via GitHub Actions.
+4. Paste the extension ID into the **Extension install by id** field.  
+5. The extension will install.

+While your Kiwi Browser installation will still work for some time, it’s essential to explore alternatives like [Microsoft Edge Canary](https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.microsoft.emmx.canary), [Vivaldi Browser](https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.vivaldi.browser) or [Mozilla Firefox](https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=org.mozilla.firefox) to stay secure and up-to-date.
