Firefox is showing the way back to a world that’s private by default

Agreed, sync is a great feature, but last I checked iOS content blockers only work with Safari, not any other apps that use WKWebView. So stupidly, I have both Focus and Firefox on my iOS phone, but only Safari can use the Focus content blocker. It’s pretty terrible.

I find it super odd that Firefox Focus doesn't let you sign into Firefox Sync. I would just use that browser for everything.

Have to used a local VPN from AdGuard to circumvent it and sometimes it glitches.

AdGaurd looks like a Safari content blocker and not a VPN to me.

AdGuard Pro, the paid version, uses the VPN interface to block ads.
