Safari supports extensions. What makes Firefox the first?

Safari mobile is a great browser, but it does not support desktop! extensions, just mobile ones from Apple's store.

yes it does. safari extensions are universal. they have been for years.

Also Firefox mobile already supports (a tiny limited subset of) extensions. And the version before their big UI overhaul supported extensions from the add-on store - although it would be unusable if you loaded up too many.
The big change is that the new shinier faster version of Firefox will now support their new desktop extension platform - and probably run them much more efficiently.
Pretty sure the person who wrote this headline only ever used Chrome mobile.

Its not too intuitive to find extensions. For instance, there’s no extensions store. You search in the App Store. Some apps by default come with an extension (1Password, Apollo, etc.)
Adblock is actually good. So good that I had to uninstall because the shopping links from Google didn’t work!
