Yeah, uBO for android phones and 1blocker for iOS devices.. and only use browsers - not apps - to access shit online.
Tha ad's bullshit.
There’s a version of uBO available for Safari now. https://apps.apple.com/gb/app/ublock-origin-lite/id6745342698
pi-hole would've blocked this, you'd most likely still get the same pop-up area but it would be blank
Do you keep a constant VPN connection to your home network?
Yes, but it's split dns using wireguard. That was only the dns and such goes through it.
You can block in-app tracking and ads largely with DNS-based blocking.
This is not necessary.
Just use the adblocker dns service for your phone. Takes like 2 minutes, it's free, and you'll never see ads.
How does one do this?
On Android, enable private DNS and set it to
dns.adguard-dns.com.To….?
This may differ slightly on various Android versions:
Settings > Network & Internet > Private DNS > Private DNS provider hostname
That doesn't work with https ad though
It does, dns happens before the request to the server happens. So instead of connecting to the ad-server the dns says 'the resource you're looking for doesn't exist' and the ad never loads.
I'm sleep deprived and can't for the life of me decipher, what I meant there 😀. But I feel I have meant something
There's another problem yet: a lot of ads nowadays use the main domain of the site as the source. So you can't block it without blocking the site as a whole.
Slightly more advanced, but Lucky Patcher is still handy for getting rid of in-app ads. Don't use it on apps that can ban you tho (especially online games). DNS designed to block ads works too.
Thanks, I just swapped over to an iPhone and was getting fed up with the fact that it doesn’t lower my have real Firefox with uBO, didn’t know about 1blocker!
If you’re using Safari you can still get uBO, it’s just called uBlock Origin Lite instead. It’s what I use, it’s quite good.
Switch to AdNauseam, a fork of uBO that maliciously attacks advertisers in the background with no increased data usage on your end!
My one beef with AdNauseam is that for some reason on my system, it acts really wonky on youtube. Otherwise, it's a gem.
Huh, weird, what does it do? I can't remember ever experiencing any noticeable difference on YT when switching from uBO to AN!
I would get that "adblockers are against the YT TOS" message. If I refreshed the page, it would work every third time or so.
Weird.
Strange, I literally don't know what this looks like! I wonder if another extension or add-on was interfering.
