This is fantastic news, especially if this fork is well maintained and/or gets

I don't understand what that means. Do you mean that it will be updated
automatically on your Safari once you download it initially?

This repo is a fork of gorhill/uBlock. Merging it upstream means merging the
changes in this fork back to gorhill/uBlock so that majority of the UO
community can enjoy the Safari compatibility of UO and this fork's user base
can enjoy bugfixes from the gorhill/uBlock. And as users of ad blockers, we
don't end up with 2 similar but slightly different softwares.

Ideally, this fork should be merged back as a PR to the original repo instead
of advertising it as-is.

I've been using uBlock on Safari for quite a while now (I've got 0.9.5.2
version installed atm). I cannot find any info what is the difference between
uBlock and the uBlock Origin, can anyone elaborate on this? Is the difference
like between Adblock and Adblock Plus?

Long story short - uBlock Origin is a fork by the original developer who
worked on uBlock.
