The anti-anti-adblock measure ##script:contains(uabInject) for the domains spiegel.de etc. doesn't seem to work in Safari on OS X. Could the reason be the known problem that Safari can't act before a script loads? Any other way to block these ad images in Safari?

Note: I tried subscribing directly to filters.txt with uBlock (not uBlock Origin), and alternatively manually added the respective blocks to "My Filters". Neither works.

I added inline script tag filtering to uBlock Origin after I stopped contributing to uBlock.

These filters are part of a feature called "inline tag filtering". Not available in other uBlock.
Edit: sorry, did not see Raymond comment!

Thanks for the quick reply. Then there's only one question left: are you guys working on a Safari OS X version of uBlock Origin? ;)

I am not aware of anybody working to make uBO work on Safari. I do not have access to a Mac, and anyways, I would be stretching myself too thin if I were to maintain myself a Safari version. This will have to be contributed by a dedicated dev from OSX platform. Even then, as per chrisaljoudi, there is no point maintaining a Safari version because apparently the API used by uBlock is going to go away.
