Same. Overall, I'm happy with my iPhone, but not having an actual browser with an actual ad blocker (uBlock Origins) is really painful. I've had to live with ProtonVPN's ad blocking, but that only prevents sites from loading, it doesn't hide the actual ad links...
AdGuard is a solid ad blocker for Safari. Not quite uBlock Origin level, but close.
Maybe, but Safari has a dogshit UI and I much prefer Firefox over it. I despise the fact that they don't let other browsers use their extensions, though (even though they're forced to reskin Safari). I'd install AdGuard on Firefox if I could.
I actually find the bottom bar pretty great.
But you can actually switch between two layouts in the Settings app. Maybe you like the other option better?
Firefox has a bottom bar as well
Yeah, was just asking whether the commenter was aware there was a setting for this as it's in the Settings app, not in Safari itself.
I still prefer Safari's version though, swiping between tabs is pretty great.
I use 1Blocker for which I bought the lifetime license on my iOS Safari, as well as adGuard DNS blocking running on my OpnSense at home (WireGuard automatically connects my phone to my home network via VPN as soon as I leave my WiFi)
