A nice place to discuss rumors, happenings, innovations, and challenges in the technology sphere. We also welcome discussions on the intersections of technology and society. If it’s technological news or discussion of technology, it probably belongs here.

Remember the overriding ethos on Beehaw: Be(e) Nice. Each user you encounter here is a person, and should be treated with kindness (even if they’re wrong, or use a Linux distro you don’t like). Personal attacks will not be tolerated.

That’s great news! Hopefully they can get the same done on iOS.

Firefox on iOS is not even the same engine, it's WebKit. Skinned Safari.

I'm an Android user, but for our iOS brothers and sisters, I sure hope so.

On iOS, the Orion browser "supports" Firefox and Chrome extensions. Quotation marks because obviously, it's very hit or miss. Some extensions are unusable with a touchscreen.
