[Question/Request] Safari Extension Support

[justinglock40]

@RemiRigal Any plans to port this to a safari extension as well or will it remain a chromium only extension?

On the same subject, how about FireFox?

+1 for safari :)

Safari

Apple added support for Manifest v3 in Safari quite recently, so it should work out of the box if you install the extension manually on Safari 15.4+. Unfortunately I do not own any Apple devices so I won't be able to test/debug the extension. To be honest I don't feel confortable publishing a piece of software without being able to assess its stability/quality. Perhaps one of you may be willing to try the extension ? Here is the official documentation for manually loading extensions into Safari, and a zip archive is available for each version in the release tab.

Firefox

Firefox is a bit of a pain because despite an official announcement a year ago, we don't have any information about Manifest v3 support. I've already considered adding Manifest v2 support to the extension but it implies a lot of refactoring as there is a lot of breaking changes between the two versions and it would be harder to maintain. Anyway, I think that Firefox support deserves its own issue, I've created #12 to keep things organized.

Thanks for the guide! Maybe someone who has Xcode installed can use the safari-extension-converter tool to convert the extension to safari and then post here to test :) There is a guide here: https://www.vshsolutions.com/blogs/convert-chrome-extension-to-safari-web-extension/ The benefit of this is that this extension would also work on iOS.

I have Xcode I’ll look into unless someone gets to it Before me
