uBlock-Safari VS firefox-ios

You are mistaken. Safari removed the APIs necessary for an uBlock port (there used to be one), see https://github.com/el1t/uBlock-Safari/issues/158.

Injecting code via Web Extensions is too late for reliable blocking - by then, either the malicious JS you are trying to defuse has already ran (if it wasn't blocked declaratively), or if it hasn't, then the rest of the page's JS depending on it has already exploded and "fixing" it after the fact (by substituting a neutered shim via Web Extensions) doesn't fix the rest of the page.

It has been there but won't ever be again: https://github.com/el1t/uBlock-Safari/issues/158

Better to fork it and maintain as another project, like previous ublock's project on safari: https://github.com/el1t/uBlock-Safari

Brilliant move not supporting normal Webextensions though. https://github.com/el1t/uBlock-Safari/issues/158

Looks like the answer is no, Safari is not supported.

> ..as of 2022, uBlock Origin’s extension is available for several of the most widely used browsers, including: Chrome, Chromium, Edge, Opera, Firefox and all Safari releases prior to 13.

Apparently, the only WebKit-based browser that can run uBO is Orion browser (beta, Mac only).

You probably can't. Safari crippled adblockers a while back. Here's a longer explanation from the developers of the best blocking extension.

Users are complaining that the latest Firefox for iOS update has removed the "Dark mode" option from the menu:[1]

> I suffer from Diabetic Retinopathy and hence photophobia. To me, this removal is an Accessability issue.

A forum moderator who's in touch with the developers said days ago that this is an experiment affecting half of the userbase:[2]

> The team is currently doing an experiment. Since March 15, 50% of users no longer see Night Mode switch from the hamburger menu. We're using this experiment to monitor and evaluate the impact of removing, so it'll be hugely valuable to hear your feedback around this feature. Thanks!

However, Mozilla's iOS team manager doesn't know about this huge experiment and think it is a bug:[3]

> Moving Focus into the Firefox repo so it can get more love and support. This happened last release and may be the culprit that broke dark mode. We're looking into this right now.

Yeah, Orion's support for Firefox extensions is a big red flag. These 2 issues on the Firefox-iOS tracker[0,1] around extensions and content blockers have long mentioned Orion, but there's no response from Mozilla.

https://github.com/mozilla-mobile/firefox-ios/commit/686d36402c6a956f460abafc8f1fe19a7887a2f3 landed in v38, so it looks like v37 was the last to support iOS 12.

When you use Reader View, Firefox parses the text of the webpage and loads it as a local page. It isn't supposed to show a red slash, though. Reader Mode shows a neutral icon (📄) on the desktop version. Please open this page and click on New Issue to report this to Mozilla, and then share the link with us.
