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 iOS is cancer. Source: am developer who supports websites on Safari iOS.

I am a little curious how this could work though. My impression is that iOS is extremely locked down. Can't even use a browser that isn't Safari with a skin.

Safari supports extensions these days, including first-class support for content blockers
