Comment on Why do most Americans use an iPhone?

  Rawdogging the internet applies to those who do not set up their phones properly. This applies to both IPhone and Android users. It is uncool that Apple only allows Webkit based browsers, where uBlock Origin doesn’t work. But even Safari Browser can be set up properly in the settings. Additional to that, there are extensions that block ads and trackers. I use a combinatiion of three extensions and I haven’t seen any ads so far:

  KaBlock!
  Hush Nag Blocker
  Ad Guard (I only use the free tier)

  You can install AdGuard on iOS, it will at least block ads in the browser.

  For iPhone, The internet is much better:

  • in reader mode
  • with AdBlock

    I didn’t realize there was AdGuard available. Is it an extension or like a standalone app running in the background?

      Sorry, I don’t have any details. I enabled it long ago and really don’t think about it except when it breaks a web site. Then it’s well integrated to temporarily turn it off
