They can’t modify webkit on ios. They also don’t appear to contribute upstream. So it’s just not supported.

Exactly. And that is why I find the parent comment from the Orion PM misleading at best.

Because it sounds like uBlock Origin works on iOS, when in reality it doesn’t and probably won‘t in the forseeable future.

What does uBlock Origin say in response to this? They had a TestFlight debut but i dont know anything beyond that
uBlock Origin Lite had a TestFlight and now works fine as a Safari extension on iOS.

uBlock Origin never claimed their Firefox extension works in Orion. So I don't think they need to respond.

Origin and Origin Lite are by the same developer.
Well, yes. I never said otherwise. But he is not the one to respond.

Instead I'd like a reply from the Orion PM, because they are the ones throwing around seemingly misleading claims about their product.
