  • Firefox 120 will introduce at least 200 new Android extensions running on a "fully open" extension ecosystem for the mobile browser.
  • Mozilla encourages developers to migrate to this ecosystem and resolve internet browsing problems with extensions.
  • The extension ecosystem aims to address recurring annoyances such as ads and cookie consent forms, enhancing the user experience on Firefox mobile.

I wish it would support a better gui design. Every time I use FF on mobile, I nope out of it after like 10 minutes.

I wish they could do what Samsung is doing with their browser, fully customisable navigation bar and controls along with ad blocks.

You get used to it. I use Firefox Nightly and I think it has more user friendly gui than Chrome.
