They all need some work really. Lightning must be using I2CP to tell if i2p is running, because it can't tell. It can be worked around by manually configuring the HTTP Proxy, but being the only "recommended" browser which is billed as having native I2P support, but not functioning seems pretty bad. We might need to build it ourselves and host it on our F-Droid as "Lightning Browser(I2P Build)" or something like that.
Firefox situation isn't alot better. For one thing, leaving media.peerconnection.ice.proxy_only=false in about:config on Firefox leaves us vulnerable to WebRTC-based de-anonymization. We can recommend changing the setting, but that's yet another thing that they have to change in about:config with their thumbs. There are two ways to do this automatically, one with root, an app called user.js-updater which replaces the user.js used by Firefox for Android automatically, or with a webextension. I had a webextension lying around.
Besides that, the coverage for recommendations isn't great. I added instructions for browsers that I tested and knew to work with i2p, and marked browsers I know don't work with i2p as unsupported.
The following diff updates all the recommendations except for Lightning. It also fixes 2521.
