“Turn off your adblocker”
No, I don’t think I will.

If you're getting that message, you need a better adblocker. Try Ublock Origin in Firefox (and NextDNS for non-Browser programs, both work on desktop and mobile).
Great; what do I do on iOS? Happens with uBlock plugin for safari and a PiHole.
Use Reader for Deadline.
I also have 1block free tier and adguard turned on, which seems to get most things.
Firefox+ublock?
No plugins in Firefox on iOS.
Ok, it seems all browsers on iOS are webkit (Safari).
I suggest to get an used Pixel and put GrapheneOS on it.
Sure. And you should sell that gas guzzler and buy a more fuel efficient vehicle.
I don't have one, I bike and use public transport
You ditch iOS. There is no permanent workaround since Apple forces all browsers to be Safari with a skin.
Edit: Also from what I understand, PiHole only blocks on DNS-level, which is your problem, because DNS-level adblockers don't seem to have the ability to get around anti-adblockers the way Ublock Origin can.
Not in the EU, but no one’s made a capable Gecko or Chromium browser yet.
There are experiments, but they’re not prime-time ready.

Who’s going to develop and maintain a browser just for the EU market?
Probably someone in the EU. The EU isn't some small market, they have 450 million people.
Ok, and you sell that gas guzzler your driving for something more fuel efficient.
Okay, and you stop stalking my comment history.
I like my Z. I don't drive it because it's efficient (I have the Bolt EV for that), I drive it because it's fun, which is something you "fuck cars" people don't seem to get.
Regardless, corporations pollute way more in 5 seconds than my weekend car ever will over its entire lifetime. So get over yourself and let me have my fun.
Brave Browser
Brave is a cryptobro shithole grifter browser funded by Peter Thiel operating for profit. It’s as private as NordVPN - just PR’ed and marketed to shit, only larping to attract privacy conscious but misinformed people. Their business model is to develop their own ad platform and track you to shit. They swapped referral codes in, they track your downloads, they fucking promoted FTX - a notoriously obvious scam den, that is not software you want on your PC, made by people around which you would grip your kids and belongings tightly IRL
They don’t actually care for your privacy and its founder would most definitely sell your data to ICE given the chance.
Use these: Gecko-based: LibreWolf, Waterfox, Mullvad Browser Chromium-based: Cromite, Ungoogled Chromium
Specifically on iOS, use Orion, Reynard or straight up Safari - somehow even Safari is less dubious than Brave if you look at the network requests lol
Theil is one of the most evil creatures on this planet, and he holds Vance's leash. Nothing he is involved in should be used by the government, or anyone else.
Doesn’t work either.
