Apple iOS now requires age verification to access websites it deems 18+. Not even using another browser like Firefox works, it’s blocked at the OS level.

I was putting off switching to Graphene or e/os until prices improve, but looks like my hand is forced.

Edit: VPN doesn’t even work because Apple knows your GPS location. I haven’t tried location spoofing yet because that’s a bit more annoying to setup.

      gemini:// and gopher:// browsers work I suppose… but they’re not really typical web browsers haha. I tried a bunch but they are all blocked. Brave, Vivaldi, Firefox, Chrome, Opera, DDG. Nothing would let it through. Firefox said an interesting error message though.

      The URL was blocked by a content filter: WebKitErrorDomain

      On ios there are no “diferente browsers”. They are safari in a trenchcoat, because apple doesn’t allow other browser engines.
