Are you saying on iOS there is no way to browse the Internet without an ad blocker? Maybe I should get an iPhone to stop spending time on my phone...

Can't answer that authoritatively since I don't know if there's something iOS-specific, but Firefox is the only browser on Android that lets you have uBlock Origin. And I know that Firefox on iOS doesn't.

I run desktop Firefox on my GNU/Linux phone, so I could leave Android behind.

Which phone are you using? How is your experience?

Librem 5 is my daily driver, buy I'll just give links to good, extensive reviews:
