    It’s long overdue. I’ve been running Nightly to get around the shockingly limited number of addons available on Firefox for Android. Hopefully Mozzila don’t fumble the bag with this as its a great opportunity to steal users from Chrome.

      I do find it funny when people talk about how few extensions are supported, when it has the best extension support of any mobile browser.

      Like I get it, but still.

        Relative to desktop, it is comparatively few.

        Best on mobile, yes. The few they allow in FFfA stable is a tiny amount considering how many actually can work, but Mozilla arbitrarily decided they won’t allow.

        It used to be able to support all desktop addons but they for some reason took that away a while back

            I didn’t know it was a mass rewrite, I just assumed they ruined the UI and features to “keep” up with mobile chrome, as most of these big tech companies do
