    Pihole is your friend. If you can’t run one at home for any reason, it costs about $5-$7 a month on some VPS hosts like Digital Ocean. Set it up with Wireguard and you have its capabilities everywhere you go.

      Someone: “there are too many stupid ads on the website”
      Pjhenry1216: “oh, really? You should self-host your own DNS server and/or spend money on hosting and rent a server”

      That’s like advising someone who had trouble getting newly bought furniture into their house sometimes to buy a crane.

        I’m sorry your life makes two cups of coffee a month out of your reach or that you can’t afford $15 one time payment for a raspberry pi. After graduating high school and you get a job instead of an allowance, you’ll see those are very small costs.

          Dude! I was messing with you! The cost is indeed minimal, yet the effort an knowledge to set something like this up to work flawlessly are not trivial for non techies for a thing that is easily achieved by uBlock Origin.
