I’m currently running Vivaldi and it’s been fine. YouTube is even smoother.

So you switched to a Google controlled ecosystem. To no one's surprise their own products, which intentionally run worse on competitive browsers, will work more smoothly once you use their backing software...

Google has a long history of abusing their position of power to "punish" users of other browsers and ecosystems by violating web standards, don't use Google's browsers or their derivatives.

This is true, however I've been cursed with using an iphone for a while and I had to find a decent alternative to firefox and ublock.

Unfortunately Safari is horrendous, like anything software Apple makes really, but it's the only browser allowed to have extensions and Vivaldi is the only real alternative to it that work, as Firefox is terrible on ios.

Orion browser allows this on iPhone! You can use Firefox or Chrome add ons.
