Wow. I've been wishing for this for so long, especially for use in Electron (and things like https://github.com/nativefier/nativefier specifically).

Mr. Gorhill, if you read this: Thank you. You've made browsing the web more enjoyable (/bearable) on a daily basis for me for many years.

Note that the lack of adblocker in nativefier has nothing to do with the lack of libraires to do the blocking but rather technical challenges with preload scripts, etc. (Not impossible but someone needs to implement it). See here for relevant issue: https://github.com/nativefier/nativefier/issues/177

Right. And combining the entire ubo package into a single js file to use via the --inject option will probably cause it's own (dis)array of problems.

But webpages can be 'nativefied' (wrapped in electron) by hand, where I assume this package may still to be of potential use.
