As a side note, using Brave browser with all protections turned on by default, including Javascript disabled, and re-enabling Javascript (2 clicks) only on the websites you care and trust enough to, has made my Web browsing experience incredibly better, especially on mobile.
Now everything loads in an instant, no more shenanigans that jump around the screen as I scroll, no Facebook/Twitter/Google buttons (that nobody even uses), no pop-up/in/out/over adverts, and even those asinine cookie warnings are gone by default!

I do the same on Firefox with Privacy Badger and Noscript extensions, supplemented with a PiHole on the network to disappear all those intrusive ads. On my phone, I use Naked Browser Pro, which lets you allow Javascript per site, along with Adaway.

I cannot recommend it well enough.
