            Kiwi Browser is more faster and support Chrome extensions ... And have Full Dark Mode

              Please don't get too excited about this product. It is inferior compared to the previous version and look at the Playstore reviews to find that 95% of the people giving it 1-2 stars since the update.

              Why?
              1) less features than the old
              2) incompatibility to the Add ons
              3) no right click (hold press) support to save / open in new tab etc
              4) no advanced configurations (no about:config)
              5) (huge issue) UI is god awful. Made by someone who lacks intelligence and kind of like sticking a toilet bowl in your lounge room or kitchen with how everything is jumbled around.

              Yes, you can technically roll back to v68 from various sites including FF's own archives. But this is a forced upgrade the next time your Play Store updates. Best thing to do if you want to keep using the older V68 that has all the features and not use the newer v79 is to Google Fennec F-Droid, which is the Open Source build of Firefox. This is signed with a different signature so that Play Store won't force an upgrade as such.

              Honestly.. Mozilla is in the dumps with this update. Just read all the reviews and see for yourself.

                Vivaldi for PC, DuckDuckGo for Android, Edge for Lumia 950XL. Although Edge for Android is pretty neat too.

                  alchemist83, 25 Aug 2020Wow Collections! What Genius! A renaming of Bookmarks! I me... moreWow, you pay nothing and why you seem to bother about it?

                  This collection is a renamed "read-later", like pocket. It's different from Bookmark.

                    Puffin browser with inbuilt VPN is the best.
                    Sites which don't open inside normal browsers open in this one.
                    Complete with game mode, mouse mode, flash support, adblock etc.

                      And uninstalled. Yandex Browser supports all Chrome extensions I can't live without them anymore, like Redirect AMP to HTML. Bye Firefox Mobile.

                          I got it in romania. I prefer vivaldi as it's much faster but it's cool this mozila. It has been my main browser on my pc for 10 years now

                            Surfing the web on this browser burns my eyes.
                            Samsung Internet can darken the web-- so much better.

                                  I just downloaded it today and after 15 mins if use , I immediately uninstalled it.

                                  Previous version was far better :(

                                    My default internet browser is better lol

                                      Loved the new theme and new searchbar widget
                                      also it already had add-ons like adblocks which is very useful and
                                      easy to install compared to chrome
                                      I suggest you firefox instead of chrome in android.

                                        Brave and duckduckgo are better
