what makes you think they will ?
- nickpresta 15y agoFirefox Mobile Nightly releases for Android already include "extensions". Here are some examples: http://people.mozilla.com/~mfinkle/addons/ http://people.mozilla.com/~mfinkle/addons/
- wavephorm 15y agoNobody uses Firefox Mobile.
- shmerl 15y agoAny factual statistics for that?
- wavephorm 15y agoI've never seen any chart or graph where Firefox Mobile even shows up. Usually when something has <1% marketshare it gets categorized as statistically insignificant or grouped in "other". http://gs.statcounter.com/#mobile_browser-ww-monthly-201101-201201 http://gs.statcounter.com/#mobile_browser-ww-monthly-201101-... http://www.netmarketshare.com/mobile-market-share http://www.netmarketshare.com/mobile-market-share
- shmerl 15y agoIt's still not nobody. And having Firefox playing a significant role will prevent situation which existed in the past where many sites were "IE only". We don't need "WebKit only" sites.
- nickpresta 15y agoThere is a difference between "WebKit only", which means you have to support some N number of standards (CSS 1/2/3 for example) and "IE only" sites, where you have to run Windows and support ActiveX.
- shmerl 15y agoThere are enough WebKit browsers specific things which are not standard to make "WebKit only" situation a problem. In general, well balanced browsers representation makes web developers think better and be more responsible.

- fpgeek 15y agoDo you have evidence that they are correctly detecting Firefox Mobile? In my day-to-day use, I've seen it treated as everything from desktop Firefox to Mobile Safari, so I'm not terribly optimistic on that point.
- gcp 15y agoPeople who like AdBlock sure do.
- orillian 15y agoI do. Deafault browser is slow, the Aurora builds for Firefox have been the fastest option I've found so far on my GNEX. But if Chrome beta is faster I'll use it. On mobile it's all about speed for me! O.
