@retr0id right?! That is probably the single biggest landmark for me to remind myself just how much of a bubble I live in.

@siguza @amarioguy @retr0id what do you use on iOS? Feels like everything has major compromises

@Orik @siguza @amarioguy I mainly just don't browse the mobile web, but I use blockbear

@retr0id @Orik @amarioguy yep, I mostly just don't browse the web on mobile. And when I do, then I think the vast majority of the time it's for either GitHub, Wikipedia, or someone's blog because their post was linked on social media.

@Orik @siguza @amarioguy @retr0id Orion lets you install Firefox extensions, such as uBlock, on iOS. It is WIP but already works quite nicely.

@retr0id sometimes I even see posts from marketers pretending blocking ads is immoral? and all I can do is hope none of them lay eggs in my chest because they’re clearly from space
