It's a very small number of add-ons, but one of them is uBlock Origin, and that's all I really want.

If firefox gets more popular then maybe more add ons can appear..

at least they support add ons like CHROME

You can just change the list of supported add-ons to whatever you like.

Only if you tie your browser with an account at Mozilla. No way to do it without an account.

Only if you need your list. Otherwise you can just switch the list I'd to one including your extensions

Where can I change this list?

In the settings under "custom add-on list". You might need to enter dev mode, which you do by tapping the Firefox logo in the about menu 5 times (you get a toast with your progress).

After that you enter the userID ND the collection name in the popup and confirm.
