Also from the official announcement (https://blog.mozilla.org/addons/2023/11/28/open-extensions-on-firefox-for-android-debut-december-14-but-you-can-get-a-sneak-peek-today/ ):
Starting December 14, 2023, extensions marked as Android compatible on addons.mozilla.org (AMO) will be openly available to Firefox for Android users.
“We’ve been so impressed with developer enthusiasm and preparation,” said Giorgio Natili, Firefox Director of Engineering. “Just a few weeks ago it looked like we might have a couple hundred Android extensions for launch, but now we can safely say AMO will have 400+ new Firefox for Android extensions available on December 14. We couldn’t be more thankful to our developer community for embracing this exciting moment.”

uBlock is already available on Firefox mobile as well as Tampermonkey, I’m not hating but what other extensions should I be excited to try? At the moment that’s all I need to use.
What are you going to install?
Consentomatic is the only other one I can think of, cookie popups are so much worse on mobile
I think there’s a filter for cookie popups in uBlock. I’m still using the I still don’t care about cookies extension tho.
I would like to install the bring back youtube dislike extension. Otherwise I’m happy with what I have already

I don’t get how the EU is not in arms about this. How is Apple able to get away with offering various browsers in the Store, when in the End they all are the Safari-Backend and therefore do not allow for competition in this ecosystem? How can a competitor stand out with a remarkable/better product, when he is not allowed to use his own engine? Or in this case: Prohibiting user from using Extensions like uBlock? Firefox is only a shell of their original performance when castrated by apples webview engine.
It helps that Apple doesn’t have such a huge marketshare here.
Rats, still no TamperMonkey lol. Prob asking for a lot to expect that to ever happen, though.
Tampermonkey is one of the few that have already been available
Wait what? I was looking for it a while back. Damn!
TamperMonkey is one of the “recommended” add-ons when I look at the list on my Android version of FF and I am not on a beta or dev build.
Good step forward, but this will again flood people with duplicate extensions, useless adblockers, or even harmful ones. And there are quite a lot, even on AMO

But doesn’t the best “float to the top” and are what is mostly installed though?
