I personally wouldn't want to hire a startup employee who couldn't figure out how to install a browser extension. ;-)

You're assuming startups are all tech. At my job, tech is not even 1/3 of employees.

Browser extensions are not meant for the technical crowd, they're meant to be installed by all users of the browser. If someone is not bright enough to figure out how to install a browser extension, or change a lightbulb, or refill the ice tray, tech worker or not I don't need them in my startup.

FYI for next time you're buying, you can install Firefox on Android, although this is perhaps threatened by Google's planned changes to user's ability to install software.

But you don't need it for Android... Can happily install uBlock Origin on bog standard Firefox there.
