Stupid iPhones… I want extensions!

[–] [email protected] 24 points 1 year ago (4 children)

I'd have bought an iPhone a long time ago if it had Firefox. Unfortunate.

It does have Firefox but it’s a Safari reskin.

It’s still better than chrome or safari on iOS. It has a built in ad blocker. Honestly, I just want that Reddit extension that automatically replaces www with old.

It's like Digg.

It’s called Sink it for Reddit

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago

Thanks! I will try this out. Safari only, but I avoid Reddit as much as I can now.

So it's not Firefox

[–] [email protected] 8 points 1 year ago

Because crApple only allows WebKit-based browsers on iOS.

[–] [email protected] 7 points 1 year ago

Firefox focus is pretty good, at least for what I use it for. I just need something I can quickly search with on mobile, the rest is in apps.

Hoping that when sideloading becomes a thing (thanks to the EU) firefox will develop a full iOS version

[–] [email protected] 7 points 1 year ago

I was hopeful too until I found out that Apple is geofencing it to Europe only.

Orion is the next best thing. You can install extensions like uBO and other FF extensions.
