@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?

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.
