Not sure what your issue is. You can install uBlock Origin on Firefox for Android and have been able to do so for years. Is there something about the Brave ad blocker that is better? I assume, for sites that make money on advertisements? Noscript stuff is good, I assume some of the tracking protection helps but doesn't go far enough. I often found Noscript broke more sites than good it did me, but I'm glad it exists as an option. Now, if Mozilla had the sack to include uBlock Origin with the iOS version, that would be something. But, on my Android phone, Firefox is just as good at blocking ads, so far as I can tell, as it is on my Macs. It's just the iOS version that is derpy and lagging behind — so I use Safari and Wipr2 (paid, $4.99, but solo developer who is active on the Fediverse). |

Included brave adblocker is more efficient(native code vs JavaScript).
Chrome let's you disable or enable JavaScript on individual sites with easy controls. It does not have the granular control like NoScript, but it provides basic functionality for someone like me who disable JavaScript by default. ... Not trying to be a dick for you about your last point, but Apple like to control their users like a dominatrix. There is not a lot of ways for Mozilla to control their iOS version within Apple garden. |

For iOS, from my understanding, Apple refuses any custom browsers. So all browsers on iOS are just forks/skins of Safari. You will never see ublock or anything else on iOS unless side loading takes off |

That's exactly the type of shitty ecosystem Apple fans want to be part of and actively support with money. |
