alt Hacker NewsVivaldi is all about customization but then they categorically refuse to add extension support to their android browser.
Imo extension is the ultimate way to customize your browser experience.
It's not technical difficulties, there are open source projects that have such support.
I also don't believe it's against any TOS because some of these browser are available in the Google play store.
I just don't get why they refuse to do that.

Probably it's a very low request priority. I use Vivaldi on Android with the built in blocking at strict. The last thing I remotely have interest in are Extensions in Android Vivalid.
Because of stuff like this? https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=48207660
If you don't have the ability to police extensions you're basically putting your users up for sale?
I use on desktop Vivaldi, on Android I can recommend Cromite (some people like as well Helium and Ultimatum)
You also can't import bookmarks on Android. The officially recommended way is to sign up for a sync account and verify it (they don't accept throwaway emails), install on desktop, import on desktop, then sync to mobile.
