    If you use android, just use adguard private dns. It will get rid of third party apps ads. For youtube you need revanced or newpipe

      Eh, I haven’t seen an ad on YouTube for years, I just use uBlock Origin on Firefox and they’re all gone. You can also do that on mobile as well.

      That said, I use Grayjay on mobile because it eliminates ads and also lets me sub to videos from other platforms. I have a few subs from Odyssee, one from Rumble, and a half dozen or so from Nebula. None of them display ads, and I only occasionally have some weird issue where a video doesn’t load (usually just close and re-open the video and it works).

      The DNS option is nice if you use an app that you don’t have any control over, but for videos and regular web browsing, you can just use an ad-blocker.

      I tried setting it upfor my router.

      But the insteuctions just go: “change ipv4 to x” and “change ipv6 to x”.

      There are no ipv4 or 6’s so i need to add them, but it won’t let me add without a specific name but it doesn’t give me any requirements for the name.

      So i’m stuck.
