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

    uBlock Origin does, though.

        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.
