Or you just use a very basic dnsmasq installation and make use of a list like: https://github.com/notracking/hosts-blocklists https://github.com/notracking/hosts-blocklists that allows you to also block full domains.
Been using this list for several months now without any issues.
Besides that, it's worth reading in to dnsmasq's configuration in more detail, in the end pi-hole is just a preconfigured dnsmasq installation with a user interface to manage hostname based blocklists.
