Firefox with ublock and a normal engine
Newpipe for downloading stuff off YT
OSMand for offline navigation
f-droid for foss software
Rethink to carefully ban everything that doesn't need internet from connecting
a phone with a nice amoled screen and all-day quickcharging battery that costs 180€ (motorola g52)
not one ad anywhere

a better question is, why would I want anything else? An iphone seems like a sharp downgrade.

iPhone doesn’t have ads

[–] [email protected] 9 points 1 month ago (1 children)

If you go to a website in a browser it has ads, yeah?

Cuz FF with ublock origin prevents that on Android but i don't believe that's an option on iPhone

[–] nitefox 5 points 1 month ago (2 children)

we have AdGuard that works just as well

Oh, in safari?

[–] nitefox 4 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Yup

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Neat, I had no idea it allows that now

[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 month ago

I’m an iPhone beetch but I DEFINITELY would be so happy to have uBlock. There’s some stuff like AdGuard and Wipr but uBlock Origin is undefeated.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 month ago

Wipr is also dope! I think AdGuard works better, though.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 month ago (1 children)

The web does without ublock origin.

[–] nitefox 1 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Ublock origin isn’t the only adblocker, duh

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 month ago

I know that and you can keep the others. Take also the new chrome version of ublock origin for manifest v3
