It took them SO LONG to get back to this point. They gutted the extensions with the redesign a while back. Only allowed approved extensions(which I understand since a lot of desktop extension ui just doesnt work on android and many extensions are broken), but then they kinda just stopped. They added a convoluted method of creating an account and whitelisting extensions on the account if you use nightly, but it was a hassle to use and it’s been years since even that was introduced.
And I mean, for normies it might be OK, but why not add a toggle that allows me to install whatever I want. If they don’t work I’ll just have to uninstall the again. It’s not like it’s gonna break my browser
I last used a chromium based browser more than 5 years ago. Recently I bought myself a tablet and had to make the difficult decision to switch to the kiwi browser there just because Mozilla can’t be bothered to include tabs for their tablet layout.

They don’t even allow the use of about:config in the main Firefox branch.
Where are my tabs on tablet? Oh where did they go…

Yea, I’m considering an alternative, too. I love FF, but this is a big gap for me.
Any fork for that?
Yeah I thought it was odd, considering the previous version just got a revamp not long before.
