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

Was gifted an iPhone 13, been a lifelong android user. Hate to admit how much I love my iPhone. Hate not having my 512gb microSD card full of music but the multi day battery life makes up for it.

Are you saying Android phones can’t have multi day battery? Screenshot of the battery usage of my 3 year old POCO phone…

Not at all. But also just wasn’t my experience. My last phone was the lg g9 and had horrid battery. I’ve seen the poco phone before. If I remember doesn’t it have a massive 5000mah battery?

I agree partly with your point of view but a iPhone is still a phone that you cannot really tweak and flash and new rom for example

Most people don’t care about that even a little bit. Back in the day I used to use various custom roms on my android devices, it was awesome. But that was then, I have a job and family now and I can’t just reset my phone on a whim because there’s some cool UI tweak in a new rom. Plus, most of the stuff that made custom roms worthwhile has been integrated into the OS nowadays, so the value add is significantly diminished.

I don’t talk about the ui focused rom, but on the private one. Stock iOS and stock android are the same shit, the only reason to change is to use a “degoogled” ROM and iOS won’t let you do that easily

Totally agree. At this point my phone is more of an appliance than a computer. I just need it to do what it is supposed to do and that’s it. I don’t even put games on the phone anymore and am really cognizant of the apps I use.

Heck I even remover Uber and lift apps if I’m not going to be using them for a while.

I used to think that way too. I hated having all the apps on the main screen and the lack of widgets. Nowadays iOS is better and has lets you customize the main screen a lot more. Most iOS users still have all this apps on the main screen but it’s not a necessity like it used to be.
