No, I do not want to find hot singles in my area, I just want to watch my silly little shows!

Switch to Firefox. Install Ublock Origin. Never see one again.

Same on chrome, ublock does it's thing.

Also duckduckgo on mobile is pretty ok at it, fandom wikis still pop up videos and shit though

Firefox on mobile also let's you install UBO, it's the only way I watch YouTube nowadays

iOS uses Safari for webview and does not allow any other browsers, so other "browsers" you see on iOS are just Safari wrapped in different skins. That means their usual extensions wouldn't work.

There's a system-level content blocker feature that can block ads for Safari in iOS, but I don't know if there is anything quite comparable to uBlock Origin available.

orion browser is webkit based but supports firefox/chromium extensions, so it works with ublock
