Or, in other words, FBI now recommends using Android :-) It's baffling how much better uBlock Origin + Firefox experience on Android is compared to any iOS ad blocker I have tried. They kind-of work but let half of the ads through.

Just be mindful that Firefox/Android doesn't have process isolation. https://www.privacyguides.org/mobile-browsers/#android

This is because the desktop browser uses the full "Gecko" renderer, but mobile uses "GeckoView", that doesn't have that implemented yet.

GeckoView is literally Gecko with an Android API wrapped around it, so that sentence doesn't really explain anything.

The actual thing is that simply each app embedding Gecko needs to be brought up to speed separately, and if Android is lagging behind, it just is, "GeckoView" or not. (Even before the invention of GeckoView, due to understaffing Android Firefox used to lag behind in terms of multi-process capability, so nothing new under the sun…)
