More specifically voyager (aka wefwef). It seems to be based on chrome for it’s backbone but is it possible to get it to use kiwi or something to use my extensions and ad blocking? News articles are becoming unreadable on some sites as they’re 75% ad space.

    Maybe your best bet is to have links open in your web browser, instead of directly in app, assuming that’s is an option in the settings (RIF allowed this for instance).

    Firefox app supports ublock origin and other extensions which works even when opening the links in the app. I have been using it for more than year now and I don’t see any ads when opening links in app.

    Have you tried setting up a PiHole on your home network? While I don’t use Voyager, most display ads do not show in the WebView for the app that I’m using to browse Lemmy due to being blocked by my PiHole.

        I use AdGuard DNS on my phone. There’s apparently a bunch of fancy stuff available if you set up an account and use the app, but I just manually added the public DNS server. It gets rid of the ads, that’s all I need

      You can also use NextDNS.io without any self-hosting required. I switched to NextDNS because it keeps working on my iPhone even when I’m outside my home network
