Mozilla has added support for Google's Play Integrity API, known for blocking users of custom ROMs from accessing banking apps, to Firefox for Android.
The reason I first used it was they had a way to bypass the limited list of extensions that Mozilla allowed to be installed but this is no longer an issue so no real idea what the benefit is anymore. I’d guess at disabled telemetry but don’t quote me on that.
I switched to Ironfox a while back but still keep fennec around for the occasional site that Ironfox breaks.

Do you know much about the development of Fennec, is it an official Mozilla thing? There’s such scarce information out there.
