They’ve got a really active and dedicated community on discord. I returned mine before this story broke for unrelated reasons but it really is a neat little device that fits a very specific niche. Outside of that bubble though, almost no one gets it and that’s their biggest problem.
I visited a few out of mindless curiosity and ignorance. I have no idea wtf I read and now the FBI is after me…
This is the way.

🤨 when did Reddit overtake Twitter? Reddit used to be a niche destination that you’d barely see it in comparison to the other big name sites.
Def used Mullvad on desktop, not on mobile. Thanks for the heads up on Aha’s Blitz. I’ve tried NextDNS and Control-D. Will gladly give this a shot.
I’m trying Adblock Pro now and it’s working really well, with no impact. I’d tried Wipr years ago but it didn’t work well at the time. Maybe I’ll give that another try.
Interesting. I had the same setup and didn’t really notice much benefit so I canceled NextDNS and stuck with the AG Home.
That said, removing AG from my phone (or disabling the extensions) immediately sped things - it’s an entirely different experience. I tried a different adblocker now and it hasn’t impacted speeds at all so I’m inclined to believe it’s something with how I set up AG on my device.
I’m with OP. Safari on iOS has been brutally slow lately, which is weird. But it seems to only be the case when I enable the AdGuard extensions. Unfortunately, I still need an on-device blocker to catch what Pi-hole can’t.

If you want to use Enhancer for YouTube*, you have to* disable its adblocking*.*
This was the key for me.
Steve Jobs is seething right now…
So, like Unity, they just want to increase their share?
I know they won’t but I feel this is one product Apple should offer a simple swap program for users that recently purchased the AirPods Pro 2. It’s not a big deal now, and may never really be, but it does feel like a real F-U to Pro 2 owners.
Having a 2nd gen AirPods Pro, I’m a bit salty about the “newer” version with lossless audio.
I use the same extensions but I wish I had a better alternative to Hush, since it basically just accepts all cookies.
Sink It is great but loads inconsistently for me for some reason. When it works, it’s awesome. A lot of times it doesn’t and no amount of reloading fixes it.
That finalized my decision to not self-host. I’m savvy enough to set it up but not enough to keep up with maliciousness like this. I’d never even considered a deliberate CSAM attack as a possibility - I thought it was just something (atrocious) users might inadvertently post.
I use Siri every day for something or another but almost invariably she gets it wrong. Play a song. Dislike a song. Ask a question. Make a call. Adjust a smart device setting. And sometimes it’s one minor word that makes all the difference.
It’s a shame because I really do prefer voice interaction. When it works, it’s magic.
ChatGPT+ has been a revelation. We’ll see what happens with iOS 18 too.
