Paying for Wipr 2 + Filtr is still the gold standard on apple platforms imo. But it’s not open source and there are no custom block lists.

Shot in the dark, but since you seem to know: does this work in the brave browser? I know(?) on iOS that under the hood everything is still safari so I'm wondering...
Challenger appears, one positive feedback so far: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=49321078
I have AdGuard DNS set up (mainly use HaGeZi lists) for system wide blocking + AdGuard content blockers to catch some web ads and annoyances that cannot be caught via DNS.
Works very well, it’s been a good long while since any ad cheapened my web experience.
Also a big Wipr fan, and generally a fan of the indie dev behind it too because it works so well. They’ve been responsive over email so you might be able to request a feature
For those reading this, it does not work with Firefox (or anything not safari it seems). Wish I had looked that up before excitedly purchasing it lol but so it goes, seems like a good project so I’m considering it a $5 donation
Edit: looks like starting with ios26 they have “filtr” mode which extends more broadly to other apps but “stick to safari for best results”
Just so you know, Apple supports requesting refund for purchases that did not meet your expectations.
All good. I got filtr up, seems decent.
Appreciate the tip!
