I’m a big fan of Safari and how seamlessly it works with all my Apple devices, but these ads are pushing me to the edge. I can't even get through an article without being interrupted by some ad or another. It’s super annoying.

I’ve looked up older threads on this, and I’m choosing between two adblockers rn - Stop the Madness and Magic Lasso. They both seem like they could be a solution, but I'm not sure which one to go for. Anything that stands out?

Are there other options I’m missing?

I’d really appreciate any advice or insights you guys can offer.

I don’t use any ad blockers. I just deal with the ads. I don’t want to risk any third-party apps accessing my data

    This is the most crazy reason I've ever heard for not using an ad blocker. You realize most ad blockers block more than just Ads? You're actually protecting yourself from trackers, phishing, malware etc by using ad blockers.
