I use AdGuard on iOS and you can use very similar block lists as uBlock Origin for macOS does. Besides ads, I block social media on third party sites. This kind of tracking is just outright evil. I'll give it on macOS a try, because the other day, I noticed that uBlock Origin didn't detect one specific tracking URL, but Firefox did (and it clearly was in the network tab of the Safari developer tools). Now it's clear why: uBO is outdated for Safari. Anyways, thanks for the port and maintenance all those years when I could use uBO!

That’s surprising, as I’m sure even an outdated uBlock Origin should fetch an up-to-date EasyList.

I thought so too, but the version number was the only difference. If I find the link again, I can post it here.
