the links you click go through the native iOS browser, without any ad blocking

That's the "that way" I meant.

I generally browse the fediverse in my default browser (or a progressive web app) and open links in the same browser. Browser has ad blocking. The network has DNS-level ad blocking. Opening websites like kotaku raw like that seems absolutely insane.

I agree. I don’t keep track of what sites are horrible cause I don’t see them usually. But when it hits you, it’s shocking just how unusable the raw internet has become. Some sites I are fine but sometimes I just got copy paste to actually read an article.
