Safari support

[salixh5]

Apparently since the newly released Safari 14 there is (some?) support for extensions using the WebExtensions API, see: https://developer.apple.com/news/?id=kuswih5l

It would be great to be able to use the AnonAddy extension in Safari.

Will look into this shortly, thanks for bringing it up.

@willbrowningme I've adapted this extension to Safari for myself. I can publish the code if you are interested? It also works on iOS and iPadOS on the latest betas :)

EDIT: I've forked this repo and pushed changes I needed to make to get it up and running in Safari there. I also published Xcode project that actually creates the extension. You can check them out if you want :)

@alexsde Yes that would be great, will check out shortly! Thanks!

I've created a developer account with Apple so just need to figure out how to publish the extension now, will give credit to you for the adaptation @alexsde thanks.

@alexsde do you know if it's possible to publish an extension to the app store without using Xcode? It seems it is only available on MacOS.

[alexsde]

@willbrowningme it's not, unfortunately. You need a Mac to build and submit the binary to the App Store.

One alternative to buying a physical Mac could be to rent a Mac in the cloud. Offered by many classical providers (AWS, Scaleway) and there are also companies specialized in this like MacStadium.

Good idea, I'll check that out, thanks!
