Damn, that article was interesting, but too hard to read on my phone with the ads jerking it around.

I don't know how people accept to brows the web without an ad blocker, especially on a small phone screen where ads are just invasive…

Since I’ve made pihole a part of my home infrastructure, using this same phone away from home is noticeably much more painful.

On an Android phone, you can use AdGuard DNS-over-TLS server to block ads system-wide even on mobile data. Or install a browser that supports extensions or has a built-in ad blocker.

On an iPhone, you can also use the DNS method, but Safari supports extensions so you can install a proper ad blocker as well.

Installing Firefox + unlock origin does the job without the effort.

Tbh it’s probably been a decade since the last time I looked into it. Glad to hear some ad blocking is doable on the iPhone. Certainly I use an ad blocker everywhere else. Will see what’s available. Thanks!
