Looking forward to this. Firefox is great on Android, but ad-block alone isn't quite enough to make the mobile web usable.

Hopefully I can find an extension to auto dismiss cookie/signup popups once this rolls out!



Have you tried the "Annoyances" filters in uBlock Origin?


Thank you. When something works well you never look at its Settings/Options page again. Just took a gander and enabled. Best to your health ~


Yeah I have it enabled but don't find it super effective, do you? I just assumed it is under-developed but maybe it's just not working on my device...


I primarily use the desktop version of Firefox, though I notice very few cookie/signup banners.

> I have it enabled

There are 16 different "Annoyances" filters, but you used a singular pronoun.


Ah yep I was just referring to the group, there's an umbrella checkbox to enable the whole thing.

I also don't get much popup pain on desktop but I have always assume it's because I visit very different sites. Will be interesting to keep an eye out and see, maybe it's broken on Android.


Kiwi Browser allows extensions on mobile devices


The orion browser from kagi supports chrome and firefox extensions on iOS.

It works well in practice. I have to kill/restart the app every once in a while though.


Is ublock origin supported on their iOS offering yet? Last I checked, it could be installed, but it didn't actually work.


I've been using it for a while and it seems to work.


Can confirm! I just installed orion + unlock origin + sponsor block and it works!
