What they're doing with extensions appears to be designed like they'd have special objectives to make it as outrageous as possible for the sake of it, trying to push it as much as possible to see what is the point where they get called out.
See the workflow for Expanded extension support in Firefox for Android Nightly https://blog.mozilla.org/addon... , it's beyond ridiculous. One would think it's just get the right "unstable" FF version, enable some (possibly hidden) switch and that should be it. No, noooo way, need to make an account on AMO, wade there through various configurations, get a specific ID, build some URL from that, and configure some ID from there in the mobile browser.
Oh, and the icing on the cake is that you still can't sideload anything, you just need the option to pick some more extensions from their store, and then you scratch your head "what doesn't work now" when specifically the extension you wanted and you spend days to bring to your mobile is just taken down https://www.ghacks.net/2023/04... . And again, there is no option to just sideload whatever you want.
