Apple@lemmy.world•What ad blocker do you use on your iPhone?
5·3 years agoFor safari i use Firefox Klar and Hyperweb as Extensions.
Other than that I have a raspberry pi running WireGuard and Pi-hole, which my phone is constantly connected to. This provides extra security (as all my traffic is encrypted) and privacy. Pi-hole filters out ad and tracking domains.

Technology@lemmy.world•Firefox outperforms Chrome in speed for the first time according to a Speedometer assessmentEnglish
6·3 years agoIt’s good to see this result replicated. The only thing I wish Firefox had natively was tab groups, they’re a really useful feature for various organizing things. Otherwise, they’re clearly one of not the best browser on the market.
Just use “Simple Tab Groups” extension. It’s pretty good. And on top of that you can use other extensions, so that for example all tabs within a group automatically get added to a container (isolating them from other tabs). Really useful when shopping for stuff so advertisers can’t track you around different shopping sites (or at least it makes it more difficult)
But unlike server aided services an OS still keeps working. You can use that PC for 10 more years, if you like.
I think there’s a discrepancy in the understanding of ‘support’ and what it entails in different technology fields. Demanding to receive NEW features for decades is not feasible in the current economic environment.
