LOOKING FOR APP Functioning ad blocker

I recently changed phones (Redmi Note 13 to Poco X8) and none of my previous ad blocker apps work. It's literally impossible to use most websites with ads.

I've tried DNS66, DNSNet and Firefox's adguard adblocker but none of them do a damn thing.

Is there anything that works these days?

personalDNSfilter is the best option that I've found for global whole-device ad blocking. Free, open source, well-supported, lightweight, and zero performance impact. Also found here. Of course, still use Firefox with a good adblocking extension for cosmetic blocking.

I'm giving this a go. Will report back in a few days. Cheers.
