Yes! Been waiting for a uBlock Origin for Safari for a while.<p>I looked into Ellis Tsung, the listed dev, but can't find much about him. The LinkedIn profile most likely (IMO) to be his only has 35 contacts and I've never heard of his other projects listed on his personal webpage. Throwing this out here in case somebody as something to add.<p>The most important aspect one should look for in an app (/extension) before installation is whether or not the dev is sufficiently trustworthy. Not yet sure about this individual.<p>Also, if we're making wish lists, somebody please look into uMatrix for Safari!
This is fantastic news, especially if this fork is well maintained and/or gets merged upstream. Safari has the lightest battery usage and fastest speed by far of any browser on my Macbook, but it sucks that the best extensions aren't always available.
I've been using uBlock on Safari for quite a while now (I've got 0.9.5.2 version installed atm). I cannot find any info what is the difference between uBlock and the uBlock Origin, can anyone elaborate on this? Is the difference like between Adblock and Adblock Plus?
My understanding is that this doesn't use the newish Safari content block API, am I right?<p>What's the best ad blocker that uses the Safari content block API? I use Adguard, and it's ok, but I'd want something else.<p>Paying money is no problem.
Very nice. Just tried it on (www.bbcamerica.com) and it works as oppose to the regular ublock that removes google analytics and don't know how to handle getting stuck. Will definitely test it out more and report any bugs.
