Really hate how iOS has zero alternatives. Thanks apple for your stupid WebKit.

Could be worse, seriously. Safari is not a bad browser and WebKit is the only engine since years that can keep up with chromium. I get that it is annoying to have leas freedom on iOS, but I also appreciate the increased security[1] and quality of life that comes with it.

[1] yes, I am aware that open source software tends to be more secure, as it can be reviewed by all. However, Android by default is way less secure than iOS, unless you use GraphiteOS or similar.

Safari on iOS is especially tolerable since they allowed uBlock Origin Lite onto the App Store recently.
