Yes, that’s what I’m trying to say. The browsers have different methods for providing same functionality. But due to restrictions on one platform, Firefox can’t provide the functionality that the users want.
Also no-addons policy means no adblock either. Which is quite an L.

With all due respect, I don’t think you understand. There is no restriction on language translation on iPhone. Firefox merely doesn’t support built-in language translation. It might have been easier for them if Apple permitted add-ons on iPhone, but it definitely does not prevent language translation. Chrome and Edge have built language translation into their apps for iPhone to facilitate this. Firefox could do the same, but have chosen not to.
Firefox doesn’t do that because modularity has been their thing for a long time while Google and MS would prefer if you’d start using their browsers as they are.
Apple’s restrictions aren’t targeted towards Firefox but inadvertently do exactly that.
This one isn’t on Apple. There’s nothing stopping Firefox from having translate on iPhone. It’s on Chrome and Edge.
Isn’t translation feature available as an addon? Afaik iPhone version of Firefox doesn’t have addons.
It’s available as an add-on for Firefox on PC. Language translation is built into the application for Chrome and Edge on iPhone.

Yes, Firefox has chosen not to support language translation on iPhones, which is why I don’t use it.
