ublock origin on firefox mobile has been a thing for years. same for decentraleyes and darkreader. the recent change affects other extensions.

What I thought was that Mobile had it's own built-in adblocking. I specifically remember being able to add the extension in a way I wasn't able to a few months ago recently.

yes: Firefox Mobile supported extensions for years, but only mobile-specific extensions, which was limited to Darkreader, uBlock, Decentraleyes and a couple more.

the new change is that Firefox Mobile will support all desktop extensions, though I'm not sure if it's implemented just yet
