That is a free service and I really like it make sure you read their website basically when you sign up which requires no login it’ll give you a unique dns entry to use as your DNS
The reason I like this one is it’s not just ad blocking it fixing a bunch of anti-tracking and other features
At least, you can change your DNS to one who blocks ads. It’s not as efficient as uBlock origin and system wide on Android. But, it’s better than nothing.
To set a DNS based adblock, it is easy to setup, opensource, and free.
I have been on Android for a long time but I still have an old iPhone that works fine for reading articles. Bonus, there is no Sim in it so no one can call me. It’s my drinking coffee device.
As a quick and easy alternative, you can set it to automatically open sites in reader mode. I’ve been trying that lately and it definitely helps although also mixed results where sites block part of their content from reader mode.
With automatic reader mode, I click to hide reader much less often than I formerly clicked to enable it
Some folks still raw dog the net? Wrap that shit up
tbh it feels like most people I know use chrome or even edge without any extensions
even without darkreader!
How do I do that on iPhone?
You can do that by selling it and buying an Android.
“an Android”

So Verizon gave you a phone for no upfront cost, and they’re shitty for making you pay for it if you decide to dash away early?
Fascinating threshold for shitty behavior you have.

If the cost of not voluntarily choosing to get myself into bad contracts is being a smug asshole, so be it.
No, it’s you. Its your demeanor.
Well, on the plus side, now you know to actually read contracts before you choose to sign them.
In the meantime, enjoy your iPhone.
I use a Safari extension called Purify. It’s in the App Store. Works pretty well for me.
(I also use a pi-hole at home)
Similar for me - 1Blocker and pi-hole at home. Then I also VPN to my home when outside to continue the pi-hole filter.
I also use iCloud relay with non-precise location.

I bought the complete app for I think $12 and it is awesome and does exactly what I need. They give you a very generous trial time.
DAE hate iPhone!?! LOL
Thanks a lot! I’m trying to set it up now
Some VPNs like Mullvad actually have an option in their app to block ads, gambling stuff, etc.
They don’t catch everything, but work pretty well.

Edit: Ah sorry didn’t realize this was already answered.
You answered better and thanks for the link. Is this a free service?
I’m using adguard but I’ve heard the owners are possibly unscrupulous.

Can you install Firefox?
In Firefox you should be able to install the add-on “uBlock origin”. No additional tweaking of settings required.
With Firefox you can browse the web including pages like YouTube.
Can’t use add-ons for iOS Firefox as far as I can find
You can use “extensions” for Safari, and there are at least a couple ad blocking extensions. I use Purify, and it works pretty well at blocking ads

Ghostery addon for safari is solid.
I’ll check it out. Thanks.
AdGuard still works well but there are other safari extensions. At home I use eero ad blocking which works well for a maintenance free blocker.
I use FireFox on my phone.
You can install Orion browser by Kagi and install extensions from Firefox like uBlock Origin
AdGuard works well.
Unlike when your friends or parents might raw dog, you can put that adblock condom on their computers for them.
