    That doesn’t help on Android since those forks don’t exist for that platform. There are Firefox Mobile forks for Android like Fennec, but I don’t know if those forks will be forced to keep this “feature” in place.

        Also I don’t think they can add any proprietary library like those interacts with google play to fennce, as per f-droid rules.

          IronFox uses their own F-Droid repository, meaning I’m pretty sure they can do whatever they want.

            Apologies, I was talking about fennce, an official firefox version published on f-droid by Mozilla, not ironfox.

      LibreFox might not exist on Android, but IronFox is a good option at least.
