I use both Firefox and Brave. Just disable all the crypto stuff. Also, Brave is the only open-source browser on iOS that has ad blocking.

does firefox not have an IOS version? It might not have an addblocker out of the box but, in android at least, it supports addons and thus ublock origin.

It does not support ad blockers on iOS because all iOS browsers are forced to be Safari reskins due to App Store policies

Oh wow ok. So ios firefox is webkit based? Weird stuff.
