    I tried Firefox but it was hot garbage on Android.

    Ended up going with Kiwi - same extension support but just better designed and much faster. Firefox kinda sucks on mobile beyond ublock origin support.

      I’ve had no issue so far. It’s just as fast as Chrome for me and the AdBlock just the cherry on top. I use it on both my phone and Android tablet

      Edit: Kiwi is based on Chromium so its privacy is arguably very very debatable

        I did speed comparisons and it was just terribly slow.

        Plus I hated the functionality of opening up every single new url in a new tab. That was enough for me to give up on it to be honest, so frustrating and no options to change.

        Agree its privacy is debatable, but it’s still better than Chrome. Can at least block all ads.

          Weird, that never happens to me and I’ve been on Firefox a couple years now (albeit mostly Firefox Nightly). Maybe it’s changed, but I can respect your choice.

        I think later this month a version will be launched that will enable practically all the desktop extensions…

          Pre-enable. I dont think they will change how the addons work. The Browser simply has a different preset addon collection of addons available.

          See my collection, I tested all these and they work on mobile. Lots of features like Tabs, popups, advanced Downloads etc. dont work, but other things do.

      Hmm works awesome and very fast for me on my phones. PIXEL 3A, Pixel 3A XL. And S22 ultra (last one isn’t fair)
