Man I hope this means we’ll be getting Firefox extensions on iOS eventually, that’d be so useful

  I'm afraid it will mean we have to endure Google extensions.

    Safari already supports those.

      What do you mean? Safari definitely doesn't support Chrome extensions.

        They probably meant that Chrome WebExtension API is re-used (with some limitations) on Safari. So you can re-pack your Chrome extensions to get them to work with Safari. Of course you can only do this with a Mac.

        Safari for iOS supports WebExtensions. Of course Apple has some really weird packaging requirements.

  This is already possible, (some) Firefox extensions work in Orion browser on iOS.

    Aye but the main benefit of using Firefox on iOS is the sync/share with desktop If I was going to break sync I’d probably just use Safari
    • freediver 5y ago
      Orion can also sync/share to Orion desktop :)

        Which exists only on Mac as far as I can see. Linux is my main driver I’m not switching ecosystems for a few browser extensions on my phone haha

          You have to start somewhere :)
