it's not really fair to compare it to an in-browser adblocker that way, especially since using them isn't mutually exclusive. PiHole blocks ads whether you are in a browser or not, an instant benefit for everybody on your WiFi network.
- 416chad 7y agoExactly this. Ads in places like news apps disappear, a big plus for pihole.
- BLKNSLVR 7y agoIn fact, one of the best things about Pi-hole network wide blocking is the removal of those 5 to 10 second otherwise unskippable ads in apps.
- Firehawke 7y agoAbsolutely. Defense in depth; Pi-hole will cover devices that you can't install an ad-blocker on while the ad-blocker will cover some edge cases where Pi-hole can't do it. It should never be considered an "or" situation; you want "both" as much as possible.
