Don’t bother with an iphone for this ever. Use a desktop browser with uBlock and you should be fine. uBlock also short-circuits most of the secondary 5-second countdown timers on the middleman link sharing sites that provide the final download page. (but not on 1fincher, for example.)

edit: I should mention that I’m behind a pihole, so not sure how much is blocked by that vs uBlock.

uBlock has been enough for me, just to add another reference point.

I see someone else surfs with a condom, IUD, and vasectomy.

Yep, it’s the only safe way to fuck around on the internet.
