The ads when I disable the ad blocker

Pi-Hole will block it anyway

You got any blacklists that catch YouTube and twitch ads? Afaik those are provided from their own cdn now, so dns won't work unless I'm mistaken

Ublock Orgin for desktop and YouTube ReVanced for mobile. They both still have no issues whatsoever with blocking ads on YT, even under the new system. Just use those and don't worry about it. I've been doing this for years.

Already use both of those, but Revanced keeps breaking lately and I have other devices that don't have other apps or extensions

Strange, I rarely update ReVanced and the only thing that breaks is my watch history. Still blocks ads perfectly.

I prefer Revanced on mobile and youtube.com with plugins on PC, but I'm talking about for other devices on my network that won't easily take an alternative app.

I'm not talking about sponsor reads.
