Daaaamn you know sooooo much more than I do (not sarcastic!)

I’m much more of a layman but I would loooove ublock for Firefox on iOS, I just know that WebKit is the only way and that’s okay with me for now.

I would obviously welcome an open API!

Quick edit; I’m drunk and don’t want to come off as sarcastic. I fully agree with you! But I do love iOS!

Haha no worries awesome person, I’m also a little intoxicated, had a good work breakthrough this week (lol doing my job working on a mobile app) so I’m celebrating myself. I run the mobile iOS and Android app teams at the company I work for so I appreciate the kind compliments that remind me that maybe I’m not an imposter.

That being said, totally agree. To be honest, the developer experience on Apple/Swift/App Store is like light years above what it’s like for Android/Kotlin/Play Store but I am frequently frustrated by Apple restrictions, so it it’s always “the grass is basically just as green on both sides.”
