FF on iOS has not been given a lot of attention for a long time. Apparently this has changed, however I’m yet to see that and the issues I have with FF on iOS keeps me away.

I’m on Vivaldi for that reason, with the latest version 8 have fixed the few annoying issues I had with it.
That’s what people keep saying (and yes, only in the EU are alternative browser engines allowed), however other browsers on iOS can create a decent browser experience. A few things that aren’t supported on FF iOS, that IMO should have been available a long time ago and stops me from using FF anywhere as I want syn mobile with my desktop browser:
Rearrange icons (web site shortcuts) on the FF Start Page. Also, not synced

I have uBlockOriginLite working with Safari on iOS just fine. I don’t use Firefox much on mobile because Safari works fine for me in that context but I assume it would work in Firefox too.

Safari is just so polished and it has just the features I and less cluttered than all the other browsers and everything is silky smooth and load times are super fast.

Isn’t that just because iOS rules mean Firefox is just reskinned Safari? Or do Apple allow other browser engines now?

For some reason, mobile FF is so bad on iOS, I keep it only to send links to my desktop or laptop.
