Firefox for Android does not support Material UI, has a low minimum API level, and generally seems lacking in features. Why is that?

Edit 1: also the downloading function is super unstable, I lost several files due to firefox starting the download then stopping and removing the download for no reason.

    Not OP, but Firefox Android is lacking in features compared to both. For example, when it comes to bookmarking, it is painfully behind its desktop counterpart. Not only is there no desktop style bookmark manager to be found, but bigger folder structures are hard to visualize because subfolders are barely indented when you need to look for them.

    I could probably write a short essay about bookmark and tab treatment, and the pseudo-tab that shows up when you tap Home, New Tab, or the URL bar itself. Browsers shouldn’t have a learning curve that requires you to acknowledge the pseudo-tab isn’t really a tab.
