    This has been a much needed feature since Firefox Android was first released

    Actually, Firefox on Android did originally support desktop extensions when it was first released. But then they did a major rebuild of the app back in 2020 and lost its addons as a result.

    BTW, Kiwi browser (Chromium based) has had full extension support since 2018.

      Yeah. I was horrified when they basically broke extensions on mobile. And had no urgency to fix it. I personally would have said it’s not ready to replace the previous revision until it supports extensions…

      A 3-year gap in software is awful, it’s only forgivable because nobody else supports extensions. Except apparently kiwi browser
