gaulPrepare your Firefox desktop extension for the upcoming Android release
EeeDawg101Woah that’s awesome. So ublock origin on android Firefox? Freaking nice!
IgnacioMuBlock on Firefox mobile has been out for a while now
*Had to use the nightly build version, though
It’s the thing I miss most after intentionally going to ‘that other platform’ for dev reasons, though Brave Browser is a decent stand-in for FF+uBlock on this side of the walled garden.
°˖✧ ipha ✧˖°uBlock has been available on stable for a long time now.
Really!? Well, shit, I hate life more, then.
eroc1990What is new, it seems, is the general availability of a lot more extensions. Right now it’s just a handful of curated ones. You can’t just go to addons and expect to install anything at the moment.
That said… RES on mobile? I’m intrigued to find out how well that works.
You can find out right now. I’ve been using it along with old.reddit redirect for years on mobile.
The truth is Firefox mobile has been able to run desktop add-ons this whole time. All that happened was they had to restrict availability of add-ons from the addon store to only the handful that they had verified work without issues. All the other add-ons could still work if they were maintained, but Mozilla couldn’t guarantee they’d work yet, so they wouldn’t let you install them directly like the other add-ons.
But if you used Firefox Nightly, there was a built in work around that would let you use any desktop addon on mobile. Some don’t work, some do. Old.reddit redirect and RES both work.
