This sounds huge! This may be a dumb question, but: do extensions on mobile require any special security tools that don't already exist?
Maybe I'll stop using Brave. Sounds cool af
I use Firefox and on my android tablet but I dont on my iphone since apple doesn't allow extensions on third party browsers. Its so annoying
I'll be impressed when they actually allow for the installation of extensions from places other than their addon store like I can on the desktop version.
it does rn, it's just a little more effort to get them but it's not hard
I remember wanting to try out Firefox on Android but not being able to use it with Tampermonkey which was a real bummer. Better late than never, I guess?
One question on my mind is why it took so long. Is Android a harder platform to make extensions available on or something?
Been using Iceraven, although it only supports a handful of extensions such as dark reader and uBlock
Awesome, I won’t need to switch to the desktop version just because I’m missing a few extension.
Firefox on Android used to do this. I switched to Kiwi when they dropped it.
Iceraven already has extensions so it's not the first.
This guys are just amazing!
Kiwi already does
