If you value privacy, ditch Chrome and switch to Firefox now (www.fastcompany.com)

With the number of people concerned about privacy, it is a wonder why chrome is even popular.

I'd love to get away from Chromium based browsers. At the moment I am using Brave.

Is there any other browser that works on and syncs between: MacOS, iPhone / iPad AND Windows? It also has to have adblock capabilities on all of the devices. FireFox with uBlock Origin would be my first choice but afaik you can't block ads on iPad / iPhone on it.

Any recommendations?

There's no perfect solution with tab/bookmark sync and iOS devices yet. Accepting that, you can have a safer, less frustrating browsing experience on iOS with Safari using 1Blocker.

If you want something similar to libredirect you can use Privacy Redirect - it's $2, not nearly as well executed, and Twitter redirecting broke recently because of the recent changes to their login flow. But it's an option.

For bookmarks I've moved to using Raindrop as a platform-agnostic solution.
