A little while back Mozilla put out a post ushering addon developers to prep their addons but I haven't heard anything else since, I don't wanna update to early and loose everything I already got

No, they only announced plans to work together with devs to make the transition to mobile easier. It wasn't a "all addons will work on Firefox android" announcement. Hopefully most popular addons transition

on mobile i use brave because its the only app on ios that will background play youtube com videos without a fuss while also removing video player ads (among the rest).

if firefox allowed a plugin, or just supported this feature outright, i would have 0 reason not to use firefox on all of my devices.

i wish theyd stop sleeping on users like me.

e: hate me all you want for it, im still right.

thanks a ton, never knew this worked

no problem! it may act like other browsers before you enable background play in the browsers options menu.

I found that, awesome! Brave now sits on my phone for the sole purpose of youtube.

Why use brave and not something like Newpipe or Libretube?

not available on iOS

Then just install LibreTube or Newpipe lol
