To the author if they happen to see this. Please kill the auto playing video. If someone is listening to something else on their phone this always takes over and interrupts.

TIL: people are still browsing the internet without an ad blocker.
Doesn’t even have to go that far. TIL people are still browsing the internet without disabling auto-play on their browsers.
Should be disabled by default tbh.
How do you use an actually effective ad blocker on the iPhone?
If you're okay with merely effective, try using a DNS server based list from nextdns.io. This is not sophisticated like uBlock Origin, but it is effective. I use it on my phone and an old iPad in my kitchen that would otherwise be obliterated by the ads on cooking sites.
I use 2 and they work very well. No options for auto playing videos though.
1Blocker and AdGuard.
For 1Blocker I have everything enabled except adult content and scripts. AdGuard has everything turned off except for General.
These are just the free versions too.
I've been using this setup for a few years and it works close to 100% of the time.
