You must be the last person on Lemmy still looking at these sites the way they're displayed by default. Firefox, adblock, no script, pi hole, etc makes all that go away pretty painlessly.

I use an app on my phone that just loads the website in a browser within the app.

Android or iOS? There are solutions on both. Adblockers are available and have been for years.

There's nothing stopping you from fixing this other than your own ignorance.

iOS. I use Firefox normally, but the app just loads the in app web browser, which I doesn’t seem to block ads. Not sure if safari extensions would work with the in app browser… might try it.
