All add-ons suddenly stopped working on Nightly

Since a few days, all Add-ons stopped working on Firefox Nightly on Android (version information is: 92.0a1 (Build #2015826377), leaving me vulnerable to scripts, tracking and ads (I only noticed it when I suddenly saw ads on sites I usually never see ads on).

When I go to Three-dots menu > Add-ons, I get a notification "Failed to query Add-ons!" and a page saying "No add-ons here". I have custom add-ons (well, actually only one, yet very important one to me: Simple Gesture) enabled via the jump-through-hoops solution using collections, so I thought: maybe that broke. So for a test I cleared the user id and collection name, but still all of the "regular", sanctified add-ons are gone and it's not possible to re-install them via AMO.

What can I do to get add-ons back on Nightly? Or is there a way to get the Simple Gesture (https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/simple-gesture/) add-on working in Firefox Daylight on Android?

Hi

Please appreciate that the Nightly version is a pre-Release testing build and may have unresolved issues that are still being looked into. This particular issue has been flagged to our developers and you can track progress at:

https://github.com/mozilla-mobile/fenix/issues/20706

I am well aware this is a testing build, but this used to work and there is (to my knowledge and great dismay) no possibility to get all the add-ons I need for a decent mobile web experience on "stable" builds.

Thanks for linking this thread in the github issue!

No problem, glad I could help point you in the right direction.
