I'd actually prefer IceCat to be clean of any add-ons, so that
installing any would be up to the discretion of each user. Since
IceCat is used mosty by expert users, then each has their own opinion
about which add-on they want installed, and which they _do not_ want
pre-installed. Pre-installing add-ons would be like distribution
builders forcing them upon users.

2. You cannot install some extensions, for example - "user agen
switcher". It is downloaded, but not installed.

The 'Get more Firefox Addons' button opens
https://directory.fsf.org/wiki/IceCat (not all add-ons in there are
IceCatMobile compatible) but it should be
https://directory.fsf.org/wiki/IceCatMobile. I reported this to
https://gitlab.com/fdroid/fdroiddata/issues/1085

I could install
https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/downloads/latest/506646/addon-506646-latest.xpi

from https://directory.fsf.org/wiki/Privacy_Badger

3. You can't add search engine "duck duck go"

I could add https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/duckduckgo-html/

4. On the website www.vgae.ru not working likes - don't react on
clicking. See screenshot.

I don't have time to create an account to evaluate this.

I have to entirely agree with Mart on this, and it has always concerned me to the point that I will not install IceCat.

Please provide IceCat out of the box, add-on free. Leave the choice of addons solely to the user. By all means provide a list of recommended Add-ons at your website.

Bye for now,
BRN. :)

P.S: My apologies to you Mart for sending my reply initially to your address rather than here.
