As these are extensions to a browser, you would look in the Extension Store/Library for each browser to find it. If it isn't there, that's a safe bet to assume that the browser is not supported.

With Safari open, click on the Safari icon, top menu bar (next to ). From the drop down, choose "Safari Extensions". This takes you to a site where all available extensions are displayed, briefly describes their function and lets you download those you desire.

If what you want is not these, you can do a Google search, naming the Extension you're after. These can be downloaded from the developer's site. Most are free, some are pay for.

Nice one, Cr00zng.

As I said, not in Safari Extensions, use Google. +1 to you.

Apple has a "walled garden", you should have looked in the App store. Here's the guide from uBlock for adding it to Safari:

Guide - uBlock - A Fast and Efficient Ad Blocker. Easy on CPU and Memory.


checked there no results in the app store. there is one app pretending to be it but people said its not ublock origin.

none for safari? that is sort of what It was looking like to me. another reason safari sucks.


I really don't see why you would say "another reason safari sucks" as my old Safari found what you were looking for and a download page:
el1t/uBlock-Safari

And for those interested they might be interested in this among other info in:
macOS: uBlock Origin comes to Safari

Including:
What’s the difference between uBlock and uBlock Origin?

What OS X version and browser are you using?? Or extra extensions if any??

Those uBlock.org loads without any problems with my Mavericks 10.9.5 and its Safari 9.1.3.
