      YouTube ads come from the same domain as their video streams, so DNS-based ad blocking like PiHole can’t work on them.

      They didn’t mention that—did they edit their comment?

      Quick edit: everyone should also have a PiHole, mine hasn’t been touched in years and does a bang-up job at blocking any regular ads (ads that, like the commenter I’m replying to mentioned, aren’t hosted on the same server you’re viewing stuff on)
