I use a recent version of Safari and uBlock origin doesn't work there. I rely on Ka-Block![1], which blocks popular ad serving domains. For other annoyances like newsletter popups, etc., I use a "Kill sticky headers" script[2], with some hacks; I'll try to post my version of that script sometime soon.
It works good enough for my needs. I also have Firefox with uBlock installed, but with that earlier setup I end up still using Safari.
