Import Extensions to Zen

Why can't we import extensions from any other browser?

Hi @mohseenjamall! I'm Dosu and I’m helping the desktop team.

Zen doesn't currently support importing extensions from other browsers. This is mainly because browser extensions are often platform-specific and rely on different APIs, packaging formats, and security models, making automatic import non-trivial. While Zen does support installing some extensions manually (like Multi-Account Containers or Other Window), there isn't a feature for importing them directly from another browser. Most discussions and issues focus on extension compatibility and manual installation, not on import functionality or plans to add it in the future (example, example).

To reply, just mention @dosu.
