@KevinRoebert Safari 15 will add support for declarativeNetRequest. Can this help you?

Unfortunately, this does not help. This is Chrome's webRequestBlocking replacement for the WebExtentensions v3 API. This only allows you to create restricted filter lists that no longer allow individual treatment. So you can no longer remove (or add) elements from a URL, just block a request entirely. However, this is useless for ClearURLs (and also many other add-ons like uBlock or NoScript). We don't want to discard an entire request due to a (restricted) filter but process this request to remove possible "harmful" content from it.

This topic was also covered on Reddit by gorhill: https://www.reddit.com/r/uBlockOrigin/comments/hdz0bo/will_ublock_origin_back_to_macos_big_sur/fvoc7wk/

This may also make it impossible to use addons like ClearURLs, uBlock, or NoScript in future versions of Chrome.

We can only hope that Apple will implement the webRequestBlocking API. Until that happens, I can't provide the addon for Safari.

Another problem would be the exorbitant costs for developers. 99€ per year to deploy a free!!! addon. But that would be a problem that could be addressed once/if Apple provides the necessary API.

Uh oh!

Safari support? #92
