The new open ecosystem of extensions on Firefox for Android launched in December with just over 400 extensions. Less than five months later we’ve surpassed 1,000 Firefox for Android extensions. That’s an impressive achievement by this developer community! It’s exciting to see so many developers embrace the opportunity to explore new creative possibilities for mobile browser customization.
What are some of your favorite new Firefox for Android extensions?

That moment when you’re stuck with safari because Apple said sidloading is dangerous 🙄

And because you chose to buy an Apple device, when Android or Linux devices are available, for cheaper even…

I bought apple devices because their software support is solid and the user interface is pretty.
But the limitations were not worth the trade off. As there are now decent alternatives and I’m no longer stuck with just android on the phone side of things anymore. There have been quite a few advancements made in the linux phone area.
I now have pixel 3a with Ubuntu touch, old thinkpad with linux mint, a steam deck and gaming rig with linux nobara. I got the whole 9 yards. I will using more of linux as time goes on and kick my ios/macos addiction.

Apple just has better integration for a lot of things, and the UI is just so much better

Don’t mind people blaming you for choosing a brand. Their ire is misplaced, it’s the company’s fault as much as it’s the consumers fault and the consumers should focus their energy in convincing companies to change their ways or loose their loyalty. This petty meaningless victim blaming helps no one.
It would help if you voted with your wallet from now on though.

Yeah I will be buying Linux devices after I run my apple stuff into the ground.
Apple limits choice/repairability and make my favourite little devs jump through hoops through draconian rules. I learned my lesson.

Well, that’s what you get if you choose to be treated like a child by a company

To their credit, Safari’s extension support on iOS is reasonably good. Not like Firefox good, but compared to chrome it’s excellent!
