• Firefox for Android is reintroducing an open ecosystem of extensions, set to be available on December 14, with a dedicated extension page for easy discovery. • Mozilla has released a preview of the upcoming extensions, including popular ones like Bitwarden's password manager and AdGuard's ad blocker. • Firefox aims to gain an advantage over rivals like Google Chrome by supporting a wide range of third-party extensions on Android, while Firefox extensions availability on iOS remains uncertain.

It really hasn't been that bad. Firefox mobile had ublock origin all this time, which is of course critical to being able to use the web today.

There are a few other plugins too, and now they are going to add a lot more. Sounds like good news. I'm not unhappy about mobile Firefox at all, I've been on it all this time

I just wish they still had a tablet tab UI.
