It's worth noting that on ios you can never block anything - just have to put up with it.

You can still block access by host by using an HTTP proxy like Fiddler or Charles.

Settings > WIFI > Proxy

I use adblockios and haven't upgraded because they unblocked the blocking. I keep hearing about charles, I wonder if it is special or if it doesn't really block everything.

No they don’t. They keep adding new ones.

They want to provide a consistent user experience across their ecosystem. Not the same thing.

Unfortunately the consistency is moving in the direction of iOS rather than macOS.
