Extensions in Opera Mobile

I've used Opera for many years,and have now been able to download Opera Mobile to my Kindle Fire (which is, I understand, a "sort of" Android device). Of course, I'm still learning how to configure both Opera mobile and the Kindle. Since Mobile has no toolbars like my regular Opera 12.16, I can't figure out how to view or access extensions. Specifically, I have downloaded Ghostery, but can't seem to find it, and the various "Helps" I've gone to haven't been any help.
Can someone explain what Opera Mobile uses to replace the toolbars - where is Ghostery, and how do I view the extension.

Opera Mobile doesn't support extensions...
You must have downloaded a extension file built for the Opera desktop browser but it's not installable.

Actually in past ,if you remember, they release a dev. version supported extensions. It would be nice if they support extensions (at least some of populars) in Android.

It doesn't support extensions.

Only a 12.0 Labs build supported them. The version isn't developed anymore so there might be bugs, etc.

I hope Opera Mobile allows extension. I have been using some on my desktop but not able to get them working on my mobile.

I doubt that version is updated, I'm not sure it is secure. But I liked it.

I miss extensions myself. Problem is, Google doesn't like it, so Opera doesn't do it. Moneywise, contractwise or the new management doesn't think it's worthwhile, or whatever for what reason. It's a pity.

Firefox is the only alternative, it does offer extensions.

Yes, but Firefox's page rendering is far worse than Opera. It also doesn't have the excellent Speed Dial facility built into Opera.

Opera with Extensions would be the ideal.
