I just tried installing an add-on on my android and the "Add to Firefox" button is still grayed out. Searching for "compatible" extensions yields only 15 results. So no, Firefox still doesn't support extensions on android and hasn't since they disabled them years ago. THIS is why people like me don't use firefox on android and use chromium-based browsers instead. At least, they let me install the add-ons I want.

To use more extensions on Android, install Firefox Beta and follow this tutorial: https://blog.mozilla.org/addons/2020/09/29/expanded-extension-support-in-firefox-for-android-nightly/ https://blog.mozilla.org/addons/2020/09/29/expanded-extensio... (the title says Nightly but it works on Beta too now).

>Searching for "compatible" extensions yields only 15 results. That's the complete list, yeah. It's utterly ridiculous and insulting. You can get around it by making an online collection of extensions with a Mozilla/whatever account, but you can't install from files. I largely agree, it doesn't meet my bar for "supports extensions" :/ hence at the very least "significant step down" - that much is at least not contentious.
