    Their small selection is already insanely helpful for me. I’ve been using firefox mobile for a year now and it’s just as fast as chrome with the additional benefits of:

    • darkmode

    • adblocking (including youtube!)

    • shorter, more sharable links without tracking

    and thats all thanks to the extensions that arent available in other mobile browsers unless devs directly integrate them into your app.

      Don’t forget the “Video Background Play Fix” add on. That paired with the adblocking makes it where you can watch ad free YouTube while in another app or even with the screen off.

        These two together made me disable the YouTube app on my phone. Firefox is just a much better way to view YouTube.

          The only thing that isn’t quite on par (for me?) is 60fps videos. Those only play on 30. The 60 option isn’t available. Maybe that’s a codec incompatibility?
