Just use something else on mobile. I use mull (until it becomes insecure because I think they stopped working on it) and fennec.

Fennec supports extensions and syncing so it should be okay for most use cases.

IronFox is a fork of Mull when you decide it's time.

please consider switching to ironfox, it's a mull fork

You can selfhost it too.

Fennec and Librewolf support logging into a Firefox account and thus sync. However, that obviously partially brings you back to the Mozilla problem...
