Thanks, I just realized I have to switch my mother from Safari to Firefox now that Apple decided to forbid uBlock.

It’s less Apple forbidding uBlock, and more uBlock deciding to not turn itself into a content blocker for the newer version.

That's just wrong. It's impossible for uBlock Origin to turn itself into a content blocker while retaining its current functionality.

Content blockers in Safari are limited to 50k filters. uBlock Origin's default filters have more than that. Therefore, the choice is between a new, but much less useful extension, or no extension at all. uBlock Origin decided on the latter.

There’s a way around the 50k limit:

To be fair, multiple extensions is a huge hack and has complexities of its own.

Firefox on iPhone doesn't support addons either unfortunately
