Pihole is easy and light enough. I used to host Transmission (transmission-daemon) on a 3B+ and it worked alright for seeding around 300-500 torrents. FreshRSS also worked alongside.
Pihole my is choice too. It’s pretty good, but for some reason video ads still get through even off YouTube? Is it possible to block them?
uBlock Origin gets rid of every single one.
You are not wrong, but uBlock needs to be installed on each device and only works on the browser, while pihole blocks adds across the whole network for all devices.
I have pihole but still use ublock on my personal computer
I did recommend Pihole in my original reply. But there's no way to block Youtube ads using it, as was being asked in the reply to my original reply.
Ah my bad mate, I didn't notice you were the same person and the way you wrote your reply made me think you misunderstood the advantages of each and we're recommending to use ublock only
You can't do that with Pihole as the ads come from the same domains, and basically need a browser extension or an app with a built in equivalent.
If you're in the UK though, it does block the ads on All4 which was a nice surprise. It even works for the TV app.
I am in the UK and that’s really useful to know. Thanks
YouTube ads don't come from a separate server. They come in the same way as the video. They pretty much need to be filtered out at the player end (e.g. browser plugins).
