Only doable with nightly and beta builds or any ffox fork that has access to custom addon collection

    Well now you got me curious too. Apparently the about:config page doesn't work or is just non-existent on Android ☹️

    I found this though...

    Okay. Well it's not working for either of my Android phones, and I'm running official Firefox, either the latest version or the last version.

    I try about:config in the address bar, and one phone does absolutely nothing but open a blank page. And my other phone apparently likes to interpret about:config as search terms for DuckDuckGo. 🤷‍♂️
