- tomascot 9y agoAnd here i am, browsing with Firefox for Android with ublock origin installed.
- sgift 9y agoYes, you can. It's the reason I use it on my phone. Chrome Mobile is faster, but I cannot tolerate ads on the big screen and on my phone they are 100x more unnerving.
- TuringTest 9y ago> You can use uBlock on FF for Android!? Yes, as well as many other extensions. I'm using Self-Destructing Cookies, Desktop by Default, Smarter Scrolling and Android Text Reflow in addition to uBlock, thus tweaking my mobile browsing experience to something much better than the stock browser.
- wooger 9y agoWere you using the iPhone version? That, like all alternative browsers on iOS, is just a shell around Safari, not the real thing.
- digi_owl 9y agoSimilarly, the recently unveiled Firefox Focus is a wrapper around webview. We seem to be heading towards a browser engine monoculture, and i am not sure i like that even if said engine is open source.
- ionised 9y agoOn Firefox for Android I am currently using; - UBlock Origin - NoScript - HTTPS Everywhere - Self-Destructing Cookies - Better Privacy (remove Flash cookies and delete Local Storage) - Canvas Blocker I've found most plugins that work on desktop Firefox work on Android Firefox.
