Before you say it: I do use Adblock on my computer but sometimes YouTube updates their site to make those not work, and sometimes I browse on my phone which doesn’t have Adblock

Firefox + uBlock Origin on both desktop and phone = no ads for many years. Default settings on both, no extra work.

    How does one get extensions on mobile? I went into Firefox and couldn’t see any extension section in the settings.

    It's directly under the hamburger menu button.

    Couldn’t find it, I’m on iOS.

    Apple doesn't allow you browser choice. It's not actually Firefox in that context. It's webkit with a different skin.

    Actually, you CAN have adblock on Apple. Kagi's browser, Orion, has the option for extensions like Ublock Origin.

    iOS is different because all browsers are basically Safari but with a different skin. You can install Firefox but the version with the more privacy built in called Firefox Focus. It installs an extension called Firefox Focus. It will block ads in Safari and Firefox.

    You need to enable it under settings > apps > safari > extensions.

    Damn, wish I knew this while I was stuck on iOS. I hated Safari and refused to use it so I just lived with ads until I started using NextDNS
