It supports both links and embeds and is available on firefox for android. List of sites is on github. I'm the main developer so you can ask questions.

There is an onboarding step for permissions in firefox version(due to more restrictions in manifest v3 than even chrome),so you need to grant permissions, unstyled UI is intended but I will add style with a minimal ui css framework in near future

The only permission it asks for is blocking.

This permission doesn't mean I can access your data for every site, this is an advantage of manifest v3
