    Going to probably try this after I build my pihole and I can VPN home for ad blocking. Currently I need root to avoid seeing ads.

        The browser ad on doesn’t work in apps, and if they have a blocker outside of that, it probably uses a VPN on the loopback interface to strip out the ads. I run a VPN a fair bit, so I would only be adblocking when I’m not on the VPN. Are there any non-root methods that can do full system ad blocking other than the VPN thing?

          Don’t use apps with ads. They are a privacy and freedom risk anyway. Use apps from F-droid.
