Yes Apple forces everyone through webkit and won’t allow third-party blockers. Brave on iOS was forked from Firefox anyway, and iirc uses the same API to block ads as Firefox Focus. Google is most definitely not involved, particularly because both block YouTube ads (and is my primary reason for using Brave anyway).
I’m not sure what you’re referencing in regard to VPN usage; I have had zero problems with mine.
I appreciate that but my response was more intended to chastise the guy blanket labeling people cultists and idiots for no good reason because they hate a browser someone else uses.
The system-wide AdGuard app handles most things well enough, and Brave does its thing on YouTube ads without issue.
Firefox Focus will also take care of YouTube ads (if anyone else stumbles down this rabbit hole), but it’s too heavy-handed for me because I actually stay logged into my account and use my history.
My Pi-hole install also handles all but YouTube if I’m at home, so there’s that.
I’m open to suggestions for a workable alternative on iOS that blocks ads.

Am I posting on social media?
If so, then, and wherever my phone pings to a tower.
Well, or I’m on the exercise bike, because the phone thinks I’m taking steps, so I double up on calorie calculations as an excuse to drink more.
… but that stays only on the phone, right?
…right?
Clearly he should rename threads to Z.
