sucks to not have ublock origin.


I suppose, but Safari/Webkit shows that you can get what feels like 95% of the way there with static block lists which are ideal when they are sufficient.

They're faster and they're trustless. The only attack surface of a block list is that someone removes their site from the list.


you wouldnt have auto playing videos with ublock origin. 95% might be nice but theres a lot missing.

The static blocklists can be defeated easily by having ads served by the same domain.

In that case you are stuck due to apple's decisions.


Orion browser in iOS (by Kagi) supports ublock origin.

This is the main reason it has become my default browser there.
