For context, I’m on an iPhone using Firefox. I can’t use uBlock Origin, but am ready to block on the DNS level after this.

I love Firefox, it is my desktop and android go to, but fuck apples bullshit.

Look into Orion browser, it allows you to use chrome and Firefox extensions on iOS, it does mean no easy bookmark or tab sharing, but small price to pay to be able to use the net again properly.

CopyMeThat https://apps.apple.com/us/app/copy-me-that-recipe-manager/id956800243 is great. Give it the url, it extracts the recipe. It not only gets rid of the ads, but also the obligatory family history of how the recipe was brought by Nana from the old country, followed by a tedious retelling of a touching story about her. And optionally saves it to your account so you always have it. And there’s web access so you can use anywhere it and a safari extension on the Mac.

Does Firefox on iPhone not allow/have extensions?

I loaded up a download page on a work computer recently, forgetting it didn't have adblock. My god the amount of ads was insane. There were literally about 20 ads surrounding the content with varying styles and I could actually not figure out at a glance what was the main content. I don't understand how anyone uses the internet raw anymore.

[–] anarchyrabbit@lemmy.world 1 points 2 years ago

I have ublock on Firefox on android and also have dns dns.adguard.com

Works great. In the past 3 years I have had to disable the dns once where functionality of a site didn't work due to it.

I recently switched from iPhone to Android, and let me tell you it is ridiculous how much more control you have over your user experience. Adblock alone made it worthwhile.

Anyway, on iPhone i used to use reader mode to filter all that crap. Though some asshole sites block the function

Why not just use an adblocker?

[–] GregorGizeh@lemmy.zip 1 points 2 years ago (1 children)

(IPhone doesnt have those)

[–] BorgDrone@lemmy.one 0 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Weird, because the adblocker on my iPhone seems to be working perfectly.

iPhone has had support for ad blockers since 2015.

[–] GregorGizeh@lemmy.zip 0 points 2 years ago (1 children)

How so? All Browsers on ios are just skins for safari. Unless you are counting jailbreaking the device first

[–] BorgDrone@lemmy.one 0 points 2 years ago (1 children)

So? Safari has had built in adblocker support since iOS 9.

I use AdGuard myself and it works flawlessly.

[–] GregorGizeh@lemmy.zip 0 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Just dug around the Safari settings on my (fairly old) device, i cant seem to find any extensions or addons. Though i believe you of course, a quick web search suggests so too. Perhaps my device isnt supporting them, its an old iphone x i think (or 8?)

[–] BorgDrone@lemmy.one 1 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago)

You need to install an ad blocker from the app store. This one works well for me.

Start the app to select the blocking rulesets

Enable it in Settings > Safari > Extensions and Settings > Safari > Content blockers

[–] beanlurks@lemmy.world 1 points 2 years ago

Also cooked.wiki.. just put it in front of the url and boom. Can save your recipes on there too👌

[–] beerclue@lemmy.world 0 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Is Fennec not available for iOS, or the extension support is the problem? This is what I see, with ublock in Fennec and pihole on my router: https://ibb.co/wSYnsM0

[–] dai@lemmy.world 1 points 2 years ago

Currently all iOS browsers are safari with custom interfaces over-the-top.

yall are getting recipes from articles?

[–] olafurp@lemmy.world -1 points 2 years ago

I use ChatGPT for recipes. You can ask for "simple sourdough recipe for 1kg bread" and you get the same AI generated stuff with just the recipe.

[–] IamAnonymous@lemmy.world -1 points 2 years ago (5 children)

You can block all these ads just with Safari or Firefox without uBlock Origin. I haven’t seen an ad on my iPhone in like a decade.

I think you will find that changing your brakes is a lot more productive than making some gross sourdough bread 🍞
