You can install firefox beta or nightly and use developer tools access to add extension collection from your choice which will replace these recommended extensions.
Note : you must create this collection on firefox addon or find existing one as you will need the collection ID.
- thatguy0900 5y agoDoes anyone know what the benifit is to Firefox to create such a roundabout workaround? Why Google makes things difficult and obscure is clear, but why does Firefox care what add-ons you install on your phone?
- pitaj 5y agoNot all of the APIs on mobile are production ready yet, so these options are for developers to try their add-ons.
- DennisAleynikov 5y agoaddons are usually hyper tunnel visioned around desktop users and almost none of their ui's work on mobile the way the developers of those extensions originally intended. ublock and the other featured apps essentially had to adapt to the mobile firefox way of doing stuff and opening settings in a separate mobile ff tab etc.
- woojoo666 5y agoafaik a lot of extensions aren't fully supported yet. I tried about a dozen different tab managers on FF Nightly, none of them worked. I'm guessing the Tab API or something isn't fully ported yet
- NmAmDa 5y agoMajority of any browser users are not tech people so making these workaround easier would confuse those users as most of the plugins are not written with mobile aspects into consideration (Even their mobile API is not complete yet).
- wingmanjd 5y agoOh, that's right! I had totally forgotten about that method.
