A little introduction: I am using Lockdown Privacy. It's an app with a local VPN which blocks ads and trackers systemwide on my iPhone en iPad. But strangely enough, it seems that it is using double data. Anyway, it's also not fool proof, so I am using AdGuard Safari extension too. Also on my Mac with custom elements that can be blocked. At home I also use AdGuard Home for my Mac (and some other devices). It's... Source: about 1 year ago

PSA: Lockdown does the same thing (they call it “Firewall”), is also open source and is available for iOS and macOS! Source: over 1 year ago
I would also suggest Lockdown for a more Blokada-like solution that can knock out a lot of ads and tracking in apps. Despite all of Apple's talk about privacy, with many third party apps you're on your own if you decide to actually use them. One of the more popular dating apps used to make my iPhone scary hot in the process of displaying tons of ads until I started using Lockdown. Yes, it was all... Source: over 1 year ago

I've tried hosted Pi-Hole and AdGuard Home. They are good as long as I'm around to fix stuffs. Then I tested something which can be global (home) and also for individual devices -- Control-D, NextDNS, and Adguard DNS. All of them works pretty well. If I really have to choose, then it would be in the order of NextDNS > Control-D > AdGuard DNS. Affiliated with none, and have decided to subscribe to all three to... - Source: Hacker News / about 1 month ago
I really like NextDNS. It's very cheap ($1.99/mo) and has an app (macOS/Windows/iOS/Android) that provides filtering/monitoring on the go, even when they aren't at home. https://nextdns.io. - Source: Hacker News / about 1 month ago
Okay but NextDNS' own homepage says it "blocks ads and trackers on websites and in apps" - https://nextdns.io. - Source: Hacker News / 3 months ago
I used Pi-Hole, then went to NextDNS, then to AdGuard DNS, tinkered with AdGuard Home, and currently testing Control-D. They are all actually pretty good, similar features, and it has become just a matter of personal choice. In all fairness, when I have some time and can invest in decent hardwares, I might go back to AdGuard Home with one of the paid services as backup for travel, and when for the other family... - Source: Hacker News / 3 months ago
