I’ve just been looking for a replacement for Firefox Beta.

    I find Kiwi Browser essential. It’s one of the only ones that you can install chrome extensions onto.

        I believe that’s an outdated Github link. The project moved here with releases here. The search engine stuff has always seemed like a non-issue to me. I run both Fennec and Kiwi but the latter gives me a true black UI and support for fully side-loaded addons (not just those already on the Firefox website).

      Mostly can’t sign in to lemmy.world for some reason but otherwise I’d some change for a bit.

        I don’t believe that’s a Firefox issue, unless it’s a problem specifically with the beta.

    Using Kiwi because it supports Twitter control panel and old reddit redirect extensions.

        Well. Thanks for the info. Uninstalling

        Edit: I added few add-ons to my collection.but I’m unable to add it to my Android. What could be the issue?

            Here’s what I did:

            • created a new collection and added few addons
            • copied the collection id from the URL
            • opened Firefox nightly and enabled custom collection menu
            • input the collection id
            • Firefox quits
            • when I open Firefox and click on Add-ons, there were no add-ons and there was an error that “Failed to query Add-ons”

            edit: added both collection id and the collection name as it appears on the URL. it is working now. Thank you for your help! :)

              I’m getting this same error. Added the collection ID and the name where?

                  It wasn’t at ALL clear to me that this entire process takes place in two DIFFERENT Firefoxes: one on a desktop or laptop install and THEN on your android device!! Maybe I read thru the instructions too fast (real men don’t read instructions 😉 ) but they all seem to say “…open Firefox…” without being clear WHICH Firefox they’re referring to.

                  I’ve now spent close to 3 hours trying to get 3 extensions to work/load properly into Fennec on the Android… Back to Kiwi! “It just works…” 😡
