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        I believe that’s an outdated Github link.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).

            Definitely lags behind, but much better than 2 years! The Firefox variants unfortunately don’t really handle PWA properly. I was a long-time Firefox/Fennec user but the bugs pushed me toward Kiwi on mobile.

        Thanks for your desktop addon guide. If there’s a way to manually install .xpis from, say, github, I’m in! 👍

          I’ve been trying to follow your guide for an hour now–but I’m not getting access to any add-ons but the “compatible” ones. For example, when I search for ‘Cookiebro’, the only two choices it shows me are Ghostery and uBlock Origin.
