Iceraven for Android. Vivaldi for Windows.

For Android, I use Iceraven, a Firefox fork built with Firefox stable's code that adds more options, features, customizations, and extensions than Firefox for Android has. So I won't have to switch from that even when the Chromium based browsers potentially all adopt Mv3 fully and drop Mv2, because I've already got a browser on that platform which hopefully will be immune that I'm already using not because of what may happen in the future, but because it's my favorite browser.

Iceraven has an extension available called "Video Background Play Fix" that does what you describe.

It should be noted that Iceraven is not compiled from source, ie. it only compiles the UI/app layer, and not the engine or other components.

Full disclosure: I maintain Mull and Fennec F-Droid.

it's already possible via this Firefox fork https://github.com/fork-maintainers/iceraven-browser/release...

Kiwi Browser and Ungoogled Chromium for Android support chrome extensions on mobile. Firefox supports some extensions. Firefox Nightly (warning, unstable) supports even more. Firefox forks like Iceraven, Fennec, and Mull also support extensions. All of these guys support uBlock Origin.

Thanks, is this it? Just want to make sure I'm getting the correct one and not forked. https://github.com/fork-maintainers/iceraven-browser

Maybe I should also mention Kiwi Browser (Chromium-based) and Iceraven (Firefox-based) specifically for mobile.

Iceraven for Android has a large library of extensions that are really easy to add:

Where is their source repo? Is it not this https://github.com/kiwibrowser/src? Which last commit was 4 months ago?

This is really cool, thanks for pointing it out! I have used Eruda and keep it in Tampermonkey in Firefox for use in a pinch but it's hacky. It's impressive that it works at all, but it's very difficult to do any actual work.

I already had Kiwi installed and it's neat to pop it open and see this feature hiding in plain sight. I won't use it as a daily driver though since it selectively blocks adblockers on a hardcoded list of domains which is just untrustworthy. https://github.com/kiwibrowser/src/blob/master/extensions/re...

GitHub - kiwibrowser/src: Source-code used in Kiwi Browser for Android

Kiwi browser is a good alternative, it supports Chrome extention in Android and also half often source. Get it here https://github.com/kiwibrowser/src or https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.kiwibrowser.browser

Yup > https://github.com/kiwibrowser/src

Their GitHub does claim that it's "fully open-source": https://github.com/kiwibrowser/src

It is fully open source since 17th April 2020 https://github.com/kiwibrowser/src
