Lots of comments in here saying to just use Firefox, and they're entirely correct, but the one use case for articles like this I could think of is where you are forced to use Chrome at work but can still install extensions.

Can't wait till Kagi Browser releases their Linux version of a browser based on webkit, but it's prob at least another year or more frmo being released and Gnome Web is so featureless it's useless and can't even play YouTube videos half the time in 2025...

Get use firefox.less intrusive
Aaand, why bother?
Ubo lite seems to work just fine for my needs, which is blocking yt ads. Everything else vivaldi or adguard catches
The UBlock Origin Lite app (currently in Testflight beta but seems to be full, but hopefully coming to the app store soon) works great with iOS Safari. I use that on iOS and Firefox on the desktop, which turns out to be a great combo if you have password and bookmark management separate.
Firefox Focus is also great as the default browser on the phone to avoid links opening from Meta or Google in Safari.
Running the «Always in Container» extension in Firefox gives the same effect on desktop and avoids opening a link in the wrong container. Highly recommended: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/always-in-container/
Is the uBlock Origin Lite TestFlight app only for Safari or is it system wide?
I'd love to benefit from it while using Firefox on iOS.
Installs as a Safari Extension, so I believe it is only for Safari and not for the «webkit core» itself that all browsers on iOS use.
Another option is the Orion browser from Kagi that supports desktop extensions like Ublock Origin.
