For every one who want to test it out you can use iceraven browser a Firefox fork that supports way more extensions than stock Firefox mobile https://github.com/fork-maintainers/iceraven-browser
You can also use the Nightly app and load addon collections. It's an absolute pain in the arse, and a lot of extensions don't work, but it's one way to get them.
I didn't know that this feature is already dort of waring in the nightly build but it makes sence that they will test it out in nightly
Honestly, it's as if they don't really want you using it. It's a legitimate feature but hidden away and quite difficult to use. Here's a guide on getting it set up. I've been using it since it came out and haven't had too many issues, but a lot of addons just don't work as intended.
