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.

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?

[–] libreom@lemmings.world 1 points 11 months ago

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/
