I think nextdns is fantastic for this purpose and has a barrier of entry that makes it usable for non-tech folks as well.
I created an account recently and linked my WireGuard server's IP (when connected) to a saved nextdns configuration.
Ads/trackers are now blocked on all my devices that use the WG egress when the provided DNS server is set in each peer's conf.
This is obvious given the scale of their blocklists, but let me just say the browsing experience and speed boost is utterly phenomenal. Does a better job at blocking than both my old Pi-Hole server and my localhost AdGuard Home daemon.
