Today, Mozilla announced more than 450 new extensions (software that adds new features or functionality to the browser) to users on Firefox for Android at Mozilla’s Addons.mozilla.org (AMO) Android page. This milestone marks the launch of a new open extension ecosystem on mobile where developers are now free to create and publish extensions and users can easily access and install them on Firefox for Android.
I'm excited about this.
As YouTube continues to go down the enshitification path, now blocking users with adblockers from watching videos after playing three, I found an extremely useful extension to remove some of the crap: LibRedirect. LibRedirect redirects, automatically or on-demand, YouTube links to privacy-friendly frontends. It also works with other services, like TikTok, Twitter, Medium, etc.
To check all supported services and download the extension to your browser, check the project's website.
