    Firefox on desktop is awesome. Firefox on mobile is painful.

      Android firefox is ok now. Moreover now it supports add ons too and there are some good add ons there.

        It’s a very small number of add-ons, but one of them is uBlock Origin, and that’s all I really want.

          You can just change the list of supported add-ons to whatever you like.

            Only if you tie your browser with an account at Mozilla. No way to do it without an account.

              Only if you need your list. Otherwise you can just switch the list I’d to one including your extensions

              In the settings under “custom add-on list”. You might need to enter dev mode, which you do by tapping the Firefox logo in the about menu 5 times (you get a toast with your progress).

              After that you enter the userID ND the collection name in the popup and confirm.

              Details:

              And a reddit comment with a list you can use:

          If firefox gets more popular then maybe more add ons can appear…

          at least they support add ons like CHROME

        What’s wrong with Firefox on iOS? I realise it’s WebKit with a Firefox skin, but it seems to work well enough.

        User interface is poor. Cannot customise the gui at all so I feel like it’s a downgrade over Samsung browser that also supports ad blocks.

      It works pretty well for me, but I use Firefox nightly.
