Last time I checked, it was just a Safari webview, and missed a lot of features compared to Firefox on Android. Has that changed recently?

Other nice thing of Firefox on Android: being able to listen to Youtube videos even when the screen is turned off.

(I'm sure there are solutions, but many seemed sketchy or didn't work well)

What are the features missing then? The main one I can see is edit PDFs directly[0], but I'd bet money that Mozilla wouldn't implement that on iOS anyways.

FF can largely do exactly the same thing they do on Desktop to attract people: create a privacy-focused browser (if that's even what they're doing) and things like syncing your bookmarks, passwords, using Firefox VPN, and blocking ads.

No proper ad blocking. Firefox Privacy has some limited blocking but Cloudflare has rendered it useless and gets me into infinite captcha loops.

Tailscale plus Adguard has finally brought sanity to all my mobile devices thankfully.

You can play yt videos with screen off using vinegar if you pop the video out to pip view it will be able to keep playing when you turn the screen off. https://apps.apple.com/au/app/vinegar-tube-cleaner/id1591303...
