I’ll make one recommendation of paid software which massively improves internet browsing experience - Adguard AdBlocker & privacy protection. https://adguard.com/en/welcome.html
It’s a system level application - not just a browser extension so works across all apps. I’ve used it for a few years now on my Macs and on my PC and it is brilliant. The best thing about it is it removes all ads from YouTube videos. The iOS Adguard app is not quite as good - due to the limitations of iOS it can’t block ads in apps - so you still get ads in the YT app. That makes it a waste of time for me on my phone but on computer it is brilliant.
You can purchase a lifetime (i.e. no annual subscription) licence for three devices for £33 plus VAT - they normally do Black Friday deals where it is a bit cheaper.
