Please everyone if you’re not using something like Ublock Origin (best in the game imo) you’re doing the internet wrong.

Some say they play ads to support content creators but they make almost nothing from them because Google is so greedy. Best way to support them is direct, $5 on buy me a coffee or a patreon subscription.

Also, firefox on android (and I suspect iOS) allows you to install extensions including ad blockers.

Faster, saves battery, prevents sites from breaking on mobile.

Not on iOS, because Apple forces all browsers on iOS to just be safari with a different look

Take a look at "vinegar" in the app store. It's a safari extension that changes the video tag on youtube videos and removes the ads.

I don't explain it well, and it costs money (fyi), but it's working for me.
