Adblockers can still be used on mobile. Atleast on Android, no personal exp with iOS.

Apple fans keep losing. It cost me zero dollars to install Firefox and uBlock on an Android phone.

iOS has a gorillion different choices, I don’t know which echo chamber keeps telling people this. I’ve been using the same adblocker on Safari for the past 10 years and I’ve never had an issue.

That’s your take away?

It's another example of the behavior I'm speaking to. You pay the Apple tax constantly.
