I really enjoy Firefox on Android as I can install a bunch of extensions and I find those extensions game changer, especially on the mobile.

One of my favorites are

Libredirect - literally one of my favorite ones. Redirects popular sites to privacy focused frontends, like YouTube to Invidious, etc.
uBlock Origin - I guess everyone knows this one
Privacy Badger - blocks trackers
Ghostery - blocks trackers, ads, scripts, etc.

What extensions do you guys use?

Librewolf has Mozilla sync, otherwise you could try using a third party syncing tool to sync your librewolf profile directory?

Thanks, this will probably be the way I go.

More info for those curious:

PS LibreWolf will not keep your accounts signed in unless you modify it. It was designed that way on purpose.

I'd second Mozilla sync, especially as you can self-host the server.

I do that and it works really well, but you still need to use Mozilla's servers for authentification. But it's been a while so maybe there's a way to host that too now.
