If you figured out how to use good extensions, you're probably on firefox anyways. The chrome extensions suck ass. Wtf is this privacy reader thing use Dark Background and Light Text. Most of them use adblock pro or something and not ublock. Chrome doesn't even have good vertical tab extensions.

Chrome doesnβt even have good vertical tab extensions.
Firefox for Android does not support extension that modify the GUI.
Sadly, because tab management sucks ass in Android for Firefox... (A trade for using the best sane browser I guess Β―\_(γ)_/Β―)
What's wrong with it? I haven't had any problems with it in Fennec.
You can't group tabs, my tab preview disappears for no reason, those are the main issues for me with FF official and beta.
Oh OK. FWIW I don't think I've lost any tabs on Fennec, but I might have changed something in settings.
I like the way tabs look because I've never liked the idea of grouping tabs, but I understand people have different preferences
This may be a blasphemy but this is the sole reason why Firefox is not my main mobile web app. For someone with :D tabs, grouping or tab management in general is mandatory.
Neat that its getting extensions but not a huge fan of edge.
Who cares. If you have a shred of privacy awareness, you'd steer very clear from it.
It's nice to see another Android browser follow Mozilla's steps and implement extensions. Though I strongly doubt Google is ever going to follow. Chrome not having extensions (or an ad blocker, at minimum with history and bookmark synchronization) on mobile is the main reason I don't use it anywhere.
Can there please just be a no B.S. Android Chromium Variant with Extension support.
