On iOS 26 (up to date as of this comment), the Orion web browser from Kagi does not have this problem.
It also supports firefox and chrome extensions, so you can use things like UBlock Origin and Privacy Badger.

Neat observation; I am an Orion user, too, for certain things.
But doesn't the latest Orion on iOS 26-latest just turn the top section a solid color (e.g., web page background-color), simply not showing any text up there around the notch/top-edge? As the parent said about the accessibility option, "...resembles the last generation of iPhones with home button from 2017" (albeit, at least not solid black/white only)?
Previously on iPhones, IIRC, we got text scrolling up above and around the notch/icons, to really make maximum use of the screen (except where truly unavoidable), IIRC.
AFAICT, Orion and the accessibility setting do stop the fading-distraction, but do not restore the use of that screen space for text/content.
