What's New in uBlock Origin Lite

2026.714.1952

July 15, 2026

- Updated filter lists - Note: When the extension updates, allow for a few seconds before it is fully ready (the more rulesets enabled, the longer it takes). Safari needs to internally convert updated DNR rulesets into its native content blocking rules.

The best ad blocker

I use this on my Chromebook I use this on my tablet and it is great (for piracy at least) YouTube is just premium now, piracy websites are the safest thing ever (no weird pop ups near people) so definitely use this!

Doest not work with youtube ads

Decent adblocker for general use but youtube videos keep spinning and restarting. I don’t think a good youtube adblock is possible with Safari restrictions so I use Brave browser when I need to watch youtube.

What is the point?

App will not let me adjust the level of blocking above the lowest. Nothing is being blocked. Guess it’s supremely efficient if nothing is being blocked???
