This, that is the only feature I miss from mobile chromium browsers, but the addition of anyways dark mode with dark reader is outweighing it a little bit

I do configure my Firefox anonymously whenever am processing a credit card charge on merchant companies like stripe which I do receive cash out from each account that’s been set up ,although the working isn’t easy it’s a little bit technical ,configuring Firefox extensions was one of the old method we have been working with ,although of recent we do work with anti detect browser .

An about:config toggle to enable unoptimized extensions on your own risk, would still have been nice.

Even now, i see no chance for niche extensions who would work fine on mobile, to be enabled.

https://www.androidpolice.com/install-add-on-extension-mozilla-firefox-android/

The option to install any extension has always been possible it’s just a tad more work to get setup.

I did this ages ago, I just add the extensions I want to the list and then they appear to let me install them

Got a “disable your adblocker” popup on that article. The third bullet point in the article is about reducing annoyances like ads. Ridiculous.

androidpolice have had lots of articles about ad blocking and picking the best one etc.

Then they won’t let anyone view the site when they follow that advice…

The site owners have different values and notices than any one writer or journalist. The problem with ads is they became too intrusive. So ad blockers block all, including on respectful websites. It’s better for consumers to block all, but journalism does with no revenue and most don’t want to pay. We don’t yet have a middle ground.

Somebody should make a standard for non-intrusive, not spying, ethical ads (no clickbaits, no contrasting colors, related to the article, etc. etc.).

Adblocks would have websites that strictly follow these guidelines in a whitelist by default (opt-out).

That’s the middle ground. But, I doubt any big ad company like Google or Meta would push for it, if not against.

Adblock Plus did something similar to that.

Then it turned out they were taking bribes to whitelist some providers and then we’re back to square one.

Oh well.

That’s why adblock wanted to by default allow not annoying ads, but there was a big backlash and other adblockers became more popular like ublock
