I just wanted to share with you the work of this developer on GitHub, I am a macOS and iOS user and I can’t wait to use this new FOSS adblocker (there are no others on macOS).

I’m not a computer scientist and I don’t have expertise but I try to help by spreading the spread, maybe someone can help or share it again!

Thank you all! P.S. I’m not the developer so I can’t answer any question

    I don’t know the reason why you are using MacOS and iOS but you shouldn’t

    EDIT : I’ve seen that I got a lot of down vote. This post was not made with the idea of shitting on Apple, it was to say that this ecosystem is “good” only for some usecase, for one in particularly, working. You shouldn’t be using a Mac and an iPhone while wanting to be a bit private. And if you do, you are doing a big mistake

        Most professional programmers I meet use Linux. A few even scrap MacOS out to install Linux on them.

          Sounds like you haven’t met very many professional programmers then.

            Professional developer.

            Literally have tux tattooed on my chest.

            I write software that runs on enterprise Linux distributions (RHEL and its babies).

            I will only purchase a MBP to develop on right now, I do not load Linux on it.

            I love linux and for anything other than my primary dev box I run it there, but MacOs being Unix AND having the creature comforts AND the best desktop experience keeps me here.

            I miss i3 BUT not enough
