That moment when you’re stuck with safari because Apple said sideloading is dangerous 🙄

To their credit, Safari’s extension support on iOS is reasonably good. Not like Firefox good, but compared to chrome it’s excellent!
Ublock origin is the best
I do wish Mozilla would remove the proprietary parts of Firefox though
Which parts of Firefox ares proprietary?
Hey Everyone, what are your favourite extensions (either already using or that you are excited to be able to use) and also whats a great example of a website that is most noticeably improved for each that extension?
On android I'm pretty basic:
- uBlock Origin
- JShelter
- LibRedirect
- Dark Reader
On PC I'm using some more:
- uGet integration
- Video Download Manager (grabbing links for yt-dlp)
- SideBerry
- Bitwarden
and probably some others I forgot right now. I also try to not use to many addons
Good news, I have been using them on Mull since a while, quite useful
Was using Mull and now with Iceraven. Add-on support for both has been awesome.
That's cool but I only use a few on the mobile. Adblock origin and Bitwarden. Guess I should check out what else is out there.
I keep meaning to see if SponsorBlock works on mobile now.
Also, just to confirm in case anyone's curious: did you mean uBlock Origin?
Finally tried it, and stress-tested it with an LTT video. It works!
I just installed a translation extension.
Consent o matic
I don't care about cookies
Bypass paywalls
And extensions to redirect reddit, Twitter, and tiktok Links to alternative frontends
not sure how well the first two are going to work together, given that the first one clicks through the banners to deny as many cookies as possible, while the second one blocks said banners from loading.
Is the bitwarden extension any different then just the app?
IMO not worth it unless you use a different password manager for stuff outside the browser.
https://addons.mozilla.org/android/addon/amp2html/ is another one especially useful on mobile.
That's one of the links I followed, to realize that I already had it.
Thank you!
Same. Just need the extensions to make mobile browsing usable.
I'm curious what the rest of the world needs.
