I read this over and over and it makes no sense to me. Even if you were right, do we really think that FF extension devs are going to make and maintain a completely separate codebase for a iOS-only FF version of each extension? I highly, highly, doubt anyone would do that.
Then on top of it, yeah, maybe you’d have to kiss Apple’s ass to ever get it installed on a user’s device. In any case, Fuck apple with a cactus.
Bizarre. All these years, every time I have tried to use a safari extension, even very popular ones like 1password, I’ve had issues. So I feel like it’s historically not been as simple as this… Maybe it is now, but all the web devs I know HATE safari. Myself included.

It’s the same codebase. Safari can use extensions written for Firefox as long as you compile it into Apple format.

I mean, you’ve still got the entire signing BS so there is a very valid reason to hate.
