Brave blocks ads natively in their mobile browser, you should give them a shot.


There is a lot I don't like about Brave, but I can't fault them for having the best mobile app on market (for me).

Why not Firefox? Bad redesign release a few years back and now discernible way to change the accessibility so it holds always. Old.reddit text is too small to be read no matter what I've tried.

None of the other browsers on Android I've found to be worth the time.


Many sites are using adblocker blockers (including this one)

uBlock Origin with Firefox on the desktop seems to work for me, though there probably are a few differences between mobile and desktop.


A lot, Firefox ( and every other browser on iOS) are effectively skins on Safari. Apple will only allow third party browsers that use WebKit on the App Store.


I use uBlock on Firefox Android, as well as AdAway (which functions as a DNS adblocker) and I had no problem, and no ad.


The site uses https://www.getadmiral.com/, they call it adblock recovery solution.

Firefox (and other browsers) on iOS are pretty limited in what they are allowed to do. It is quite likely Admiral is able to detect that easily compared to more robust solutions on Android.


ublock works on kiwi browser on android for this website.
