I just wanted to share with you the work of this developer on GitHub, I am a macOS and iOS user and I can’t wait to use this new FOSS adblocker (there are no others on macOS).

I’m not a computer scientist and I don’t have expertise but I try to help by spreading the spread, maybe someone can help or share it again!

Thank you all! P.S. I’m not the developer so I can’t answer any question

    Safari is different on iOS, you can’t just take for granted we’re just talking about “Safari” here. Since when have they supported extensions on mobile?

      Safari on mobile iOS/iPad have supported extensions since iOS 15 (2021), it supported limited 3rd party content blockers since iOS 9 (2015)

        Surprising. What do you have to do to publish such an extension? To get any app on your device typically apple must explicitly review and approve it 🤢

          extensions on mobile are published as normal apps, so yes the process/requirements are the same as publishing any app on the app store

            Thanks for that. Apparently a lot of apple simps are on here, since in getting downvoted a lot for just expressing distaste with the shitty practices of an evil corporation, which btw in time nearly everything I hate about them is getting legislated against by the EU. They are an anti-consumer pile of dogshit company.
