I believe you can set browser.download.useDownloadDir in about:config
You can't access about:config in the release version of mobile Firefox. Only in the beta or nightly builds. The beta version is reasonably stable to be fair although it can fluctuate.
This is true, but I encourage people to check out either mull browser or fennec. Both forks of Firefox on Android with privacy enhancements, the ability to use any Firefox store addon (this may be in release now I am not 100% sure) and access to about:config. I've not found stability issues with them either
I've been using fennec as my main browser for a long while now and it's great
does Fennec sync with Firefox on desktop like the official app does?
Yes, it does. It allows you to log into your Firefox account. Ive been doing it and it syncs just like the official app
