Most web-usage is happening on mobile, and ad-blockers are less common there. So, younger generation is pretty much living through the ads constantly.

Yup. For reference, on Android your best bet is to install Firefox + uBlock Origin. On iOS, I believe Kagi's Orion has built-in content blockers but you can also install uBlock Origin [1].

Brave is excellent on Android. I watch YouTube all the time with literally zero ads ever.
You can use ReVanced on Android to block the ads in the YouTube app
Brave is a series scam company.
On iOS, Safari has some basic ad blocking capabilities, and beyond that there's AdGuard.

As far as alternative browsers go, Vivaldi also has an integrated ad blocker.
