      uBlock Origin is reliably blocking the blocker blocker for me at this time, though a few popups got through a couple weeks ago.

        Same, uBlock in Firefox is doing it 100% for me. Haven’t even seen a youtube ad or a complaint that I should stop blocking ads.

          Well if you are using Firefox, you obviously life the easy life. But what about the Edge or Chrome users here? Habe some respect for those poor guys.

            They suffer voluntarily simply by choosing not to switch their browsers to non-chromium.

              Yeah, that suffering is self inflicted if we’re talking about home users. In an enterprise environment you might need to convince your admin to add Firefox to the company portal.

            iOS web browsers are forced to use the safari/WebKit engine, so you don’t get Firefox extensions, sadly.

            The main benefits of using Firefox on iOS is if you prefer it’s interface or want to sync with desktop Firefox (which is why I use it).

      Brave for iOS (sorry firefox gang I appreciate you guys) is working fine for me. I had some issues with both Firefox/uB and Brave on windows getting the pop-ups.
