Rocking extensions in firefox for android for years. Don't know what you all talk about

Good for you, perhaps you've modified your Firefox through the debug menu and curate your own collection of extensions on AMO?

Since you speak from a position of superior expertise, surely this is something you know all about.

I think you might have missed it, but if an extension is marked as compatible (by the developer) you can install extensions nowadays, no need to curate your own extension list. Here is the listing.

Link me a Mozilla source that confirms the change and we'll be one step closer to "Too late for me, I stopped using Firefox years ago and I'm not going back to a company that's actively drives me away from their other products (Tested Thunderbird, uninstalled after donation ads. Currently migrating away from FF/LibreWolf). I have no trust in their ability to make reasonable products anymore."

"This milestone marks the launch of a new open extension ecosystem on mobile where developers are now free to create and publish extensions and users can easily access and install them on Firefox for Android."

This has apparently been the case since December 2023.

That's fair enough. Unfortunately this came too late for me, I stopped using Firefox years ago and I’m not going back to a company that’s actively drives me away from their other products (Tested Thunderbird, uninstalled after donation ads. Currently migrating away from FF/LibreWolf). I have no trust in their ability to make reasonable products anymore.
