Description
uBO Lite (uBOL) is a reliable and efficient content blocker.
The default ruleset corresponds to uBlock Origin's default filterset:
- uBlock Origin's built-in filter lists
- EasyList
- EasyPrivacy
- Peter Lowe’s Ad and tracking server list
You can enable more rulesets by visiting the options page -- click the _Cogs_ icon in the popup panel.
uBOL is entirely declarative, meaning there is no need for a permanent uBOL process for the filtering to occur, and CSS/JS injection-based content filtering is performed reliably by the browser itself rather than by the extension. This means that uBOL itself does not consume CPU/memory resources while content blocking is ongoing -- uBOL's service worker process is required _only_ when you interact with the popup panel or the option pages.

Ratings and Reviews
Trusted developer releases Adblock for Apple devices
I used AdGuard before this, without giving it the extra website permissions. It blocked most ads. I tried uBlock without the extra permissions and it actually blocked less ads. However, after giving it access (which I feel comfortable doing given uBlock’s reputation) and setting the block level to optimal it blocks all ads, even on the worst site I use.
5/5. Thank you for making this free.
A great reason to use Safari again
As my title suggests, this extension is a great reason to use Safari. It works flawlessly on ipad and macos, just as effective as the equivalent uBlock on Windows for chromium browsers. I would gladly pay yearly for this, but the developer refuses donations. I’ve been using uBlock for years, and its always been the most effective extension for blocking ads. Speaking as a retired programmer with decades of experience, this extension is great!
Best adblocker for safari
Open source, based off of the original ublock origin, and faster than any other adblocker I’ve tried for safari. Highly recommend. Make sure you set your filtering mode to complete, otherwise you’ll still see some ads.
