My Android browser has an add-on that is no longer accessible online. Can it be exported? (programming.dev)

I didn't keep the .XPI file, unfortunately. Is it possible from a phone's file structure to export or even build this from(/out of?) a currently installed add-on that can no longer be (easily) downloaded?

Rethink is okay but buggy and thus leaky. GrapheneOS also has a network permission which is tremendously useful, also from a security perspective.

E.g. your keyboard shouldnt have internet access, or it might likely send all your input to their servers for "necessary analysis" lol

    I have never heard of Rethink being buggy. Where was this discussed? An alternative is KarmaFW, though it's not as sophisticated. And yeah, I use HeliBoard; it's great.

    I tried Rethink recently, it is not reliable as a VPN, as it doesnt allow to block connections if the VPN connection is cut

    @boredsquirrel @Flagstaff mine rethink installation was dropping my connection to the VPN constantly. It's really not reliable. I've managed to block Samsung garbage in the pihole
