I'm not sure about calling it a new world of open extensions, seeing as Firefox used to support running any extension you wanted and then Mozilla artificially removed that and are now patting themselves on the back for... re-enabling it? Possibly with some extra APIs to make the experience nicer? (Which in fairness is worth something; desktop extensions were wonky on mobile)

SponsorBlock now works on Android, awesome!

What was the reason Firefox for Android did not have a large repertoire of extensions from the start? Was it because of different multiprocess support?

Absolutely cannot wait for true Firefox on iPhone.

Nice. I needed to do so much trickery to get bypass paywalls to work.
Now all we need is to get proper tab groups on desktop and I can be fulfilled.

Meh, too little too late. I've already moved on to a Firefox fork that doesn't limit my extensions like this. It's not new to me, I've been living like this for years.
