I currently use Brave on my iPhone. It's pretty good, since it has built-in ad and tracker blocking; but if there's something better I'd like to know.

EDIT: I have just figured out a way to make the SnowHaze UX work for me. Here's my homepage:

Tabliss Web in SnowHaze browser

SnowHaze, for those who don't know, is a privacy-focused FOSS browser for iOS, iPadOS, and (I believe) macOS, which includes features such as:

Built-in ad and tracker blocking
Custom content blocking
No telemetry
Custom search engines
Custom homepages
JavaScript blocking
HTTPS forcing
XSS and tracking URL warnings
Passcode/biometric lock
Cookie blocking
Custom user agents
Canvas blocking
Idk, probably more

Safari with the following extensions:

I was unaware of vinegar, that’s awesome. Thanks.

That actually sounds like a good config. I'm hesitant to pay for apps on iOS at the moment, as I'm planning to move to CalyxOS, but I might give these a try.
