It supports both links and embeds and is available on firefox for android. List of sites is on github. I’m the main developer so you can ask questions.

Thank you very much. This seems like it is in the same vein of the Android app, UntrackMe, which is unfortunately no longer maintained.

Ah cool. I only just learned about LibRedirect and was hoping for a solution for Firefox on my phone. Thanks for sharing!

Wait, does FF on Android only support Manifest v3 extensions?

No, both manifest v2 and v3, but in earlier versions add-ons had to be vetted by reviewers or manually added to their account collections by users, but from v121,all extensions marked by their devs as compatible are available to everyone https://blog.mozilla.org/addons/2023/11/28/open-extensions-on-firefox-for-android-debut-december-14-but-you-can-get-a-sneak-peek-today/

Is it a fork of LibRedirect?

No, written from scratch in manifest v3 with minimal permissions

Nice. What are the benefits over LibRedirect?

Does PreDirect also have instance discovery built in along with the ability to ping services?

Libredirect is a manifest v2 extension (can’t be published on chrome store) and has permissions for all_urls, predirect is a manifest v3 extension and only has permissions for necessary domains
