But only on Android as far as I know

Firefox 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.

  • Orion can. My guess is that it's just not a priority.

    • From 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. "
