You can install a locally built and signed extension in the release version of Safari, without disclosing the source code to Apple.

I was referring to apple's general behavior (how they lock down their phones) not their specific browser extension policy.

If apple, one of the most controlling companies on the planet, thinks it's okay for their users to install any extension they want, why does Mozilla feel justified to do the opposite?

What risk are they trying to mitigate, and was it worth pushing addon developers away from their browser too?

Their reasoning? https://blog.mozilla.org/addons/2019/10/31/firefox-to-discon...

No wonder people abandoned them. Mozilla is the digg of browsers.
