    iOS 17 supports pwa notifications, so it's pretty much exclusively ads at this point

      iOS 17 isn’t out yet.

      "support" means that user needs to explicitly do something (add as an "app") before you can get notifications which is not as easy as in the app

    Every single browser except Chrome would be a better way to put it.

    You can install an ad filter, set up content filtering, and then use Safari without seeing ads.

    Samsung Browser and Safari both very much enable ad blocking, and especially Samsung actively notifies users to enable it.
