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.

Brave is dropping the ball. It's the only mobile option.

I use Firefox with uBlock Origin on Android. Isn't there the same for iOS?

[–] ourob@discuss.tchncs.de 3 points 2 years ago (1 children)

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).

Hyperweb might work though.
