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?

Don't mind people blaming you for choosing a brand. Their ire is misplaced, it's the company's fault as much as it's the consumers fault and the consumers should focus their energy in convincing companies to change their ways or loose their loyalty. This petty meaningless victim blaming helps no one.

It would help if you voted with your wallet from now on though.

Yeah I will be buying Linux devices after I run my apple stuff into the ground.

Apple limits choice/repairability and make my favourite little devs jump through hoops through draconian rules. I learned my lesson.

I just bought apple devices because their software support is pretty solid.

Honestly the reason I own and use an old iPad, it was practically the only tablet that could do what I wanted. I used a Mac mini for the better part of five years before I switched to Windows and finally Linux! (It's ok if Linux isn't for you)

I get the appeal, their hardware is very nice and I still wish other manufacturers matched the tolerances Apple sets for their hardware. I just can't buy from a company behaving like that. Also good man using your hardware for as long as reasonably possible! 😁 We only have one earth after all.
