Firefox on Android is seriously lacking

God knows how much I love Firefox on the desktop, everything works wonderfully there, but it is a disaster on Android. The tabs "freeze" for no reason and the performance is not on par with Chromium and its redskins.

    What shitphone do you have? I have a new phone but even my 5+ year old S9 runs firefox just fine. Hell, nowadays with bigger extension support it runs/does things better than before.

    Firefox on Android is unusable because it lacks too many convenience features compared to any chromium based browser. Also it pretends that tablets do not exist.

      Also, extensions.

    It's the only (free software) browser which will let me run any desktop extensions I wish, so I stick with it.

      They already implemented normal tabs for tablet mode, it is on nightly.

        Yeah I've tried that and it's quite good
        The dealbraker bug is that right click still doesn't work. I guess it should be trivial to implement, I'll make a feature request soon

    Also, Firefox is the only browser on Android that allows extensions, so it's the only good browser on Android.
