Hello, While waiting for add ons to come back to firefox, what browser would you recommand ? I'm really not an expert but i've always trusted mozilla. I'm would like to avoid chrome and was wondering if there was any alternative on android i could use while waiting for firefox to be fixed :) Thanks !

i'm suggesting to use the latest version working with your needed addons, propably 68.11.0, and download the app directly from mozilla: https://download.mozilla.org/?product=fennec-latest&os=android&lang=multi

i found this link in the wiki https://wiki.mozilla.org/Mobile/Platforms/Android

other old firefox versions for direct download https://archive.mozilla.org/pub/mobile/releases/

Hi,

The people who answer questions here, for the most part, are other Firefox users volunteering their time (like me), not Mozilla employees or Firefox developers.

If you want to leave feedback for Firefox developers, you can go to the Firefox Help menu and select Submit Feedback... or use this link. Your feedback gets collected by a team of people who read it and gather data about the most common issues.

That's what I was expecting :) i wouldn't ask a mozilla employe for an alternative to there product!

They stated that add ons were important and that they will add more. So I don't fell telling them that I need add ons would help. And apart from that I genuinely found the new version better.

I am just looking for an alternative while waiting for firefox to be usable again.

Hi

I am sorry, but aside from recomending another Mozilla browser from the Google Play store, I am not going to be able to help.

Does any other mozilla browser still have add-ons? If not, thanks for your time :)
