I skimmed through the wiki but couldn't find it. I saw maybe there's a way to get firefox nightly to allow any plugin? But I couldn't figure it out. Anyone have a guide or solution to bypass paywall on Android?

In my experience, 12ft fails to work many times and does not support a wide range of sites. The best way to bypass news paywalls is to use Bypass Paywalls Chrome Clean extension, which is available both for Chrome and for Firefox. It supports many sites, and has recent updates. Browser extensions on Android are much limited, but the best Android browser I found to support extensions is Kiwi browser. Another browser I heard that has supports extensions is Orion browser, though I have not tried it.

Personally I use Iceraven (https://github.com/fork-maintainers/iceraven-browser) it's a Firefox fork. But there's a variety of browsers that support add-ons that can be found on F-Droid like Mill, Fennec, etc
