Firefox says it will keep supporting uBlock Origin even as Microsoft Edge and other Chromium browsers phase it out under Manifest V3.

    I haven’t used MacOS or iOS for years so I’m out of the loop, but I thought Safari on both had pretty good extension support? I know Adguard is still great on both, a friend uses it (and I use it on my Linux and Android devices).

      A few years ago they made some changes to how extensions work (iirc it was supposedly aimed at improving privacy by restricting what extensions can access).

      These days I use a paid iOS/macOS specific ad block app. It was like $3 one time purchase and it works great.

      It’s not in a bad state at all, I would just like to see adblockers baked straight into safari and on by default.

      I prefer uBlock Origin Lite on Safari. I switched a while back because adblock wasn’t catching ads in YouTube.
