    I like using AdGuard DNS profile on iOS. I have been using it for years and it works great!

    I don’t have much experience with adguard but have been using 1blocker for years and have been happy with it. It’s of course not system wide ad blocking (it won’t block YouTube ads for example) but it works great in safari.

    I use AdGuard. Used it for years - with brief stints of 1Blocker - and I feel like AdGuard blocks more ads and breaks less sites.

    The "blocks more ads" part is probably mostly because AdGuard allows you to add the "normal" blocklists that you find all around the Internet (plus it has a large collection of built-in ones already).

    IIRC 1Blocker uses its own format, which isn't as prevalent.

    Couldn’t find on their page if it’s open source, if it’s not then that’s a big no-no

    For me personally proprietary is not always a deal breaker tbh!

    Regarding the dns, do you prefer AdGuard compared to Nextdns. In that case, why?
