Honestly one of my biggest gripes with my iphone. There are some adblock plugins but they don’t work nearly as well

You wanted the walled garden, now deal with the walled garden.

“I haven’t used an iPhone in years, I wonder if it’s actually gotten better like people said” was my motivation for buying this phone and it’s a mistake I’ll only make once

is there a firefox app on iPhone?

is there a firefox app on iPhone?

Not really. There's something called Firefox available and it's published by Mozilla, but Mozilla has to deal with Apple's restrictions on web browsers by using the webkit rendering engine and Apple's proprietary plugin system. So it's not real Firefox.

Yes, but Apple doesn't let you use adblocker on it. There's a specific Firefox app they released that has it baked in, so you'd have to use that instead

I use AdGuard. It’s been pretty good so far.

I second AdGuard. I have the paid version that includes DNS blocking. It blocks ads system wide, not just Safari.
