Unfortunately it's not currently on F-droid but it seems like that is a planned goal.

Edit: I came across this project while looking for an alternative, because Fennec F-Droid did not sync my history with my desktop browser when I installed it. I did, however, reinstall it and this time it worked, so I am now using Fennec.

Fennec also has about:config support. It's a firefox feature that's removed "because it's dangerous for users" 🙄

I couldn't get Fennec to sync with my Firefox account.

Okay, what the hell!? I just downloaded it again, signed in and it immediately worked, no idea what went wrong the first time🤨

Is that really what they said? A little while ago I read that it was because many of the options in there didn't work on Firefox Mobile to begin with.

It's something close: https://discourse.mozilla.org/t/about-config-missing/66537/6

About:config is not a feature that most people will use and it can make your browser seriously unstable.
