It's a shame Mozilla butchered Firefox mobile, cos this still doesn't work on it.

It does work on Firefox Android but the extension is not part of the default set. You need to use a version of Firefox that supports Custom Add-on Collections like a Nightly build or the F-Droid Fennec build. Once you've got this installed you need to enable the debug menu by tapping the Firefox logo on the 'About Firefox' screen five times (see [1] for more info), add the Firefox ID and repo name for a repo with the required extension in the 'Custom Add-on collection' section and install the extension the normal way. Luckily the author of PrivacyRedirect has created just such a repo [2] which you can you to install the extension without the need for a Firefox ID (which I do not have and do not want, I'm still waiting for an easy way to run a Firefox auth/sync server on my own hardware) or having to create such a repo yourself.

Once installed you'll quickly find out the 'More options' page - on which you can configure which servers are used for redirection - does not appear. Fortunately the actual URL is entered in the location bar, it just doesn't open the page. Simply press the button, then close the 'Settings' page using the arrow on the top-left of the screen, then select the location bar (which should now contain a moz-extension: URL) and press enter on the keyboard.

The extension works fine, at least for me, on Firefox Developer Nightly on Android.

Sounds like people were getting tricked into installing dodgy extensions, so they had to build a Proof of Nerd system.

PoN - add some blockchain and build a currency out of it - NerdCoin.

No, I assume the real reason to be the fact that many extensions need to be adapted to mobile as can be gleaned from the non-appearance of the 'More options' page in PrivacyRedirect. Mozilla just chose a rather clunky and ham-fisted way to keep untested extensions from running on mobile. They could have added a simple option to allow untested extensions from the standard repo with a disclaimer of such a configuration not being supported.

I recommend Mull! Fennec plus arkenfox defaults and they've got an upstream repo (DivestOS official) for quicker updates than F-Droid's builder (same day vs. up to a week)

Also, all your extensions need to be in a collection together, so this isn't the most useful.

You can use mine, which contains all the extensions I use, including privacy redirect, plus a few bonus extensions I don't normally use but which I think are useful: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/collections/1383278...

Werks on my machine.

There's an anal process to enable it, and I think it only works in beta/fennec, but it works.

There's also 'UntrackMe' for Android: https://fedilab.app/wiki/untrackme/

>instagram->bibliogram

no longer works.

My experience as well. Invidious also breaks all the time, except for the most popular channels around.

Its a shame, is there an equivalent out there?

The best solution I guess would be to use a burner account with bibliogram, but currently this feature doesn't exist.

Nice! I'll give this a shot.
