Also plugging Firefox mobile here if you do any web browsing from mobile. You can add uBlock Origin on Firefox mobile, which you can't do on Chrome mobile.

- Jalad 1y agoBut only on Android as far as I know
- Nursie 1y agoFirefox on iOS is a safari wrapper. They do what they can, but they can’t support extensions the same way the Android browser does. It’s a real shame Apple continues to block it from being full-fat.
- _cenw 1y agoOrion can. My guess is that it's just not a priority.
- Nursie 1y agoFrom a quick web search, while it supports installing firefox plugins they may not all work as expected due to limitations/differences in the browser APIs, and ublock origin fails to work properly as a result. So IMHO mozilla are probably choosing "Let's not" rather than "Let's deliver a broken experience" As one user on reddit said - "Orion supports Firefox and Chrome extensions. Yes. And you can install them. Yes. Do they work, though? No, most of them don't. Orion is lying about their extension support. "
