    Well, after a search, it turns out that as of June 2 2026 you can block ads on YT with ddg. It still serves you some Microslop ads though the search. Also it seems pretty strong at ad blocking.

    I will start using that from now on and and see how it goes.

    Edit: You’ll have to forgive my bluntness it was a recent change I was not aware of it. Also the Videos can be played in PiP Mode which is really cool. I am finally free from Brave Thank You

    Unfortunately no adblocking

    Edit: this comes two days later and after using DDG’s browser app on iOS the adblocking is nowhere near as effective as brave’s adblocking and when playing videos the phone heats up a lot and it drains the battery way more. So unfortunately I may switch back to Brave.

    You can say what you want and you can downvote me into oblivion. Brave’s adblock (on iOS) is leagues ahead of the competition. All while not tanking your battery.

    The unfortunate truth is that on iOS it’s the only acceptable browser option since it is by far the best at adblocking.

    But you have to deactivate all the crypto stuff

    Anyone with alternatives welcome (except Safari)

    Edit: Went on a quick search to find another browser. It is just not possible on iOS. I don’t want to download 2 apps and configure a dns just to not see ads ffs.

    Edit 2: DDG Browser (iOS) has added the ability to block ads on YouTube (2 June 2026) and has a good ad blocker in general it seems. If anyone is reading this and is using iOS you should give ddg a try.
