How to search for installed (both enabled and disabled) addons extensions in Firefox browser like chrome does via "chrome://extensions/" in 2025?

It is quite surprising that in 2024-25, firefox still doesnt have any option to search for installed addons via "about:addons". You can only search for addon site, not for those installed on your device and profile and browser.

Is firefox team really updating their browser for 2025 when compared to chrome?

about:addons displays a full list which you can search like any other web-page by pressing Ctrl-F.

Please re-read my query properly and see screenshots. One cannot go through them if too many are installed. Ctrl+ F is known and also exists for chrome but a dedicated search bar is there and needed. Only Firefox (in general, gecko engine) lacks a search bar, not other browsers.

Does this need to enable flag and not something clearly present as chrome has done since inception?

So sad no answers no wonder why most of us are using Chrome and Chromium.
