What would be your recommendation for blocking ads on an android phone? Do you use one and, if so, what’s your 2 cents on what you’re using? Where have you seen the biggest improvement (reduction) if it works well?

In general i do like others and don’t really use many apps that have ads.
I used to use TrackerControl which works great, but acts as a vpn to get around root restrictions that stop standard ad-blocking, and now I use a permanent VPN to my home network over Wireguard, so I can’t use TrackerControl any more (or any other non-root system-wide ad blocker).
I got around this issue by setting up a work profile, and installing the few apps that I still use that have ads on the work profile, and having TrackerControl installed on the work profile. That way… Can have always-on VPN on main profile, and few apps with ads blocked on the work profile.
I use Grayjay for YouTube, auto-blocks ads. Browser has its own ad blocker.
