> I don't need an ad-blocker. I have YouTube Premium.

This cannot be your actual stance.

You know there is a lot more to the Internet than that one website, right?



I already said I dont use Safari that much. If you hadn't shortened the quote your reply would be moot. Maybe I need to rephrase, to make you happy: I don't use the web so much on my iPhone. The primary ad-offender in my world is YouTube, which I fixed by paying for Premium.


You know there aren't really ads on websites anymore, right?

There are ads in algorithm apps like YouTube, tiktok, Instagram, mobile games, streaming service "poor" subscriptions, etc. And there are paywalls. But the vast majority of interesting websites don't have ads anymore.


Surely you jest.
