I use 1Blocker X and don't see any ads.

This works well:

...but, updates to the app will no longer be allowed, so it will eventually stop working on some future iOS update, by which point I hope to have found an alternative platform.

1Blocker X only blocks ads in Safari. It doesn't block in-app ads, such as the ads in the YouTube app.
