And those were installed from the mozilla addon library? With full support for a mobile interface? And you tried every extension available?
Flash used to be a mobile extension...
What u highlight desktop for, the article is about android and the 10 extensions it has so far, your own highlight says "about upcoming android release" desktop is only mentioned for devs to optimize their shit for mobile use.
And no my extensions were not from mozilla thats my whole point I can get extensions elsewhere this whole time, which is why I mock mobile mozilla users in the comments thinking mozilla did something revolutionary.
The article is about how i currently Firefox only supports 10 extensions, specifically developed for mobile, but in the future it will allow all the extensions that are available for desktop. And how no other mobile browser so far accepts all desktop extensions, making Firefox the first.
It's really not that hard to understand
