      Because it has to be said: PIHOLE DOES NOT, NEVER HAS, NOR EVER WILL, BLOCK YOUTUBE ADS

      uBlock Origin does, though.

        YouTube isn’t the only website on the internet and pihole does more than block ads

          I’m aware. But well-meaning people still often recommend Pi-hole to those looking to block YT ads. Since it’s DNS-based, it can’t block YT ads as YT serves ads from the same domain as the normal content.

          But it’s really good at blocking a lot of other shit.

      Do it while it lasts, they’ll make it proper hard at some point. They keep inching toward proper dynamic DRM.
