Damn the negative stories just keep coming in regards to Brave. It’s a shame, I liked using their iOS app but I said fuck it awhile ago already. Firefox is my main b ^rowser^

I'm still not sure what to use on my iPad for adblocking. Someone please tell me what to use instead on iPad! Everything else is Firefox + uBlock Origin, of course.

I use Wipr with no complaints so far. If you need free, AdGuard is popular and has a free mode that seems to cover the basics.

Apple makes it quite difficult. Honestly, I don't think there's a good option. Maybe try DNS based adblocking, by either setting your DNS to one that blocks ads or by setting up a Pihole, which gives you more control.

They do indeed. I'd use my iPad for media much more often if this weren't the case
