Brave on iOS is one of the more legitimate ways of getting an ad blocker

Firefos add-ons don't work on iOS, I literally just googled it to ensure I was informed before writing what you wrote.

Check out Orion! Firefox and Chrime add on support.

Edit: Also like Vivaldi. If you want device wide I can highly recommend NextDNS
