I recently switched to an iPhone from android. Brave seems like the only browser that allows me to block ads without some sort of external plug-in app. I miss having ublock on iOS. But brave seems to do the trick for me and its place.
- nashashmi 7y agoBraves filter is much more granularized. Cookies get blocked. Specific scripts get blocked. I love it. But it's webkit and I like Firefox.
- jayess 7y agoSame here. I'd love ad blocking on firefox in ios but it doesn't seem to be an option.
- rhexs 7y agoOnly reason I haven't switched to brave on iOS (for that free ad cash) is that using the back gesture seems to always reload the previous page, whereas I don't think that occurs in Safari. I suppose the other reason is that it's mostly the same thing due to iOS restrictions, but I do like Brave.
- jayess 7y agoHN has become a bizzaroland where I get downvoted for voicing support for an app.
- randie63 7y agoYou have to try Kiwi Browser. It has build in ad blocker (need to be enabled in settings first) and a real dark mode for websites. And bottom UI.
- iteratorloopmap 7y agoNot even open source. But it tries to mislead people into thinking it is open source. Stay away from it.
