Which AdBlocker do you guys prefer with focus being on functionality, battery life, and connectivity (no drop offs/disconnects)?

This is the way. No need to be using apps that drain your battery even more.

DNS doesn’t have the capability to block YouTube ads. You’ll need an adblocker or use YouTube frontends such as Piped to avoid those cancerous ads.

For blocking YouTube ads, I cannot recommend Vinegar more. It’s a safari extension that replaces the default YouTube player with a standard HTML5 video tag. Which means all the functionality of iOS videos (PiP, backgrounding, scrubbing) and no ads.
