The new open ecosystem of extensions on Firefox for Android launched in December with just over 400 extensions. Less than five months later we’ve surpassed 1,000 Firefox for Android extensions. That’s an impressive achievement by this developer community! It’s exciting to see so many developers embrace the opportunity to explore new creative possibilities for mobile browser customization.

What are some of your favorite new Firefox for Android extensions?

The UI for playing ads and paying for music sure is great!

uYouEnhanced + YouTube Premium

I don't have this problem. The android and iOS YT apps are similar, I was talking about the OS in general

Not sure what’s wrong with paying for listening to music. Used regional pricing so for me YT premium is like 4€/month. I consider that a pretty good deal.

I remember downloading some app in highschool off the playstore to make my old ass galaxy note4 UI look like an IPhone X, had identical features and everything. It looked legit to my friends who used them their whole lives. Didn't really like it but its out there.

Oh and there's free apps like Innertune which is basically YT music+

I’m on a Google Pixel with GrapheneOS so I’m not sure that would work

I already use Aurora and have Google Play services sandboxed already enabled, but thanks anyway! :)

If it was the ui app you were asking for it was called Launcher iOS 15, but they made an 18 version since then. I'd get a system adblock or DNS before installing any of them, assuming they work on your phone anyway

Thanks! They claim not to log any info, so that’s nice. I’ll check further but it was a big complaint that I had. :)

Edit: they just didn’t put the privacy infos in the play store, but they seem to reserve the right to retrieve some infos.

I’ll guess I’ll throw LuckyPatcher at it to try to remove google services and disallow internet access
