Firefox for Android users get a taste of what they can expect from open extensions before the big reveal next month
• 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.
Nice to see FF doing the work and opening doors to so many extensions.
The few things I have encountered on FF that are still a major PITA for me:
Sometimes tabs gets corrupted in sense that they just wont load any data and show data of the tab that was shown previously. navigating to other domain and stuff wont work. (Encountered it in Private mode)
first point drives me mad, happens every now and then, a workaround is to close the tab and undo that, gets it to work again.
Happens in normal mode as well
I remember seeing a GitHub Issue regarding this year or two ago. IDK what happened after that since they moved to BugZilla.
If you know the BugZilla Link to the issue, then please do share with me, so that I can subscribe to it. I tried looking for it but maybe I wasn't framing it right? This type of issue should not even exist at this point tbh.
