i use firefox with a lot of extensions, making the shortcut widget with the built-in add to home screen function won’t work because it’ll open the site with extensions disabled.
i’ve managed to make it work better by making the shortcut with internet disabled which opens the link in the actual firefox app but that gives the shortcut app a generic icon which looks bad.
i’ve searched around and there are apps that make shortcuts but no luck finding a foss one.
Native Alpha: https://github.com/cylonid/NativeAlphaForAndroid/
Uses the system web view to make any website open in a dedicated window. Has some other niceties like applying adblock on a per “app” basis.
Doesn’t do extensions, though, but if some of the built-in tweaks are sufficient, may be worth a shot.
sounds nice but no i need those extensions
