I'm trying to install ad blocks and it seems that the Firefox browser doesn't recognize itself as a Firefox browser. It's telling me to download Firefox when I'm using a Firefox browser in the first place

You posted this question with a Safari user agent. What browser do you use the access the Add-ons website as this usually happens if the user agent isn't recognized as a Firefox user agent?

Note if you are actually using Firefox on a iPhone or iPad then then there are no Firefox Extensions for iOS/iPadOS due to Apple's restrictions on what browser engine can be used on iOS/iPadOS. https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/add-ons-firefox-ios

Firefox extensions are only available for Firefox on desktop (Windows, Linux, and macOS) and Firefox for Android.
