What is the state of rootless ad blockers for Android?

Several years ago, I used Blockada, which was frequently recommended. According to some discussion threads, it seems to have fallen from grace.

What ad blocker that doesn't require root do you use? What's your experience with it? Would you recommend it?

Blokada used to be recommend a lot in the past, what happen to them in the past 2 years?

They've moved to a cloud-based, subscription model for the new version (Blockada 6). You can still get Blockada 5, which is offline and free, for now, but it may be phased out at some point.

I don't know. I still use it and it works flawless for me. Is there a reason why I should use something else?
