Use i2p on Android with Mull/Firefox (slrpnk.net)

On Android/GrapheneOS, Firefox/Mull/variants is the only browser with the needed proxy settings to use with i2p.

After a bit of searching, it works very well!

As i2p servers you can use "i2p", "i2pd" (more minimal but more efficient) or "InviziblePro" which bundles some implementation of i2p.

I am using i2pd currently, and it works well.

Installed the apps with Obtainium

Mull from the DivestOS F-Droid repo
i2pd from the purplei2p F-Droid repo
MullvadVPN from Github, Orbot from the guardianproject repo (as fallback if clearnet sites are used)

The browser can open .i2p and clearnet sites, using a little hack:

network.proxy.no_proxies_on to !.i2p

that about:config hack is neat, but it would be much betterif firefox supported container tabs like on desktop.

Unfortunately since they moved back to their mercury based internal code forge, it's become quite difficult to track the state of unimplemented features, so who knows if they even have it in mind

They ditched git? Really?
