Assuming it's not available on iPhone is what you're getting at. In that instance Apple is the one to blame.

They're talking about mobile. Since Apple doesn't let browsers use their own engine, uBlock Origin doesn't work on Firefox for iOS, only on Firefox for Android. On the desktop, it works everywhere.

Not just on Android, I'm using it with uBlock Origin on a GNU/Linux phone as well. Only iOS is an exception.
