Microsoft edge's latest build version 134.0.3124.57, just added a whole new web-store for Android user unlike google. Extensions are great for adding a tiny bit of functionality to a browsing experience without dedicating an entire app to run in the background. For instance, some users like to use VPNs securely tied in from the browser itself rather than running the full-scale app.

I'll be sticking with Firefox, it has extensions and is not owned by an advertising company.

Technically Mozilla is advertising company, they made a few acquisitions and have usual mission statement on website: "Mozilla is redefining digital advertising..."

But you could argue they can make more money by selling information you upload through Firefox. They have permission to sell EVERYTHING!!!
