Microsoft Edge for Android now supports installing ANY extension... with some work
What you need to know
  • Microsoft is testing the option to use any extension in Edge for Android.
  • Using any extension requires you to have Edge Canary, enable developer mode, and use the extension ID of whatever you'd like to run in your browser.
  • Microsoft introduced extension support in a limited capacity earlier this year and the feature is still in beta.

Edge Android supports extensions? Since when? :unsure:
It's been a while they have added extension. On the stable build only a few, uBlock Origin was available on Beta builds but at the moment it's on Canary build only. But of course, it's outdated similar to Edge store's uBO on the PC. Other extensions can be installed also on Camary as showed in @Gandalf_The_Grey's shared link.
