User scripts on mobile

Yesterday I tried Firefox 160 (current version), on my Android 9 Redmi 7, again.

:open_mouth: Oh wow! Now at last it has Violentmonkey and Stylus support!
I briefly tested them with some userscripts like COLLECTION HIGHLIGHTER and MASS MERGE RECORDINGS, and some userstyles like mb wiki MOBILE NARROW LAYOUT FIX and HIDE LISTENBRAINZ PLAYER.

Good stuff, everything works!

The little inconveniences when editing MB with Firefox (compared to Kiwi) is that Firefox:

  • Does not have the devtools
  • Does not have the Copy link text context menu item (I use it ten times per second when editing MB, for writing my edit notes
  • Does not have the open link in tab group
  • Pauses scripts in background tabs (no good for collection loading or mass merging while doing something else in other tabs)

But still, it’s huge!
The good thing is that if you use Firefox on PC, you can certainly send tabs to and from it, like it was possible with Firefox 68.

Another cool :pushpin: PINNED SOLUTION
