Most functionality that people use Ublock Origin for doesn't actually require Safari extensions – it can be more efficiently and privately implemented using Content Blocker extensions. These have been available on iOS for a long time now.
We develop an ad blocker [1] for iOS (and macOS) that has complete ad blocking functionality simply by using the content blocking mechanism.
The only time we've found that we've needed to resort to using Safari extensions is for our YouTube ad blocking; specifically to block the pre-roll video ads. So at least on iOS this will now be supported as well as of iOS 15.
