It used to be able to support all desktop addons but they for some reason took that away a while back

The reason was they completely rewrote the mobile browser.

I didn't know it was a mass rewrite, I just assumed they ruined the UI and features to "keep" up with mobile chrome, as most of these big tech companies do
