I dont use a pi hole (but am heavily considering setting one up).
Right now I use newsboat rss to “subscribe” to whoever I want. When it opens Librewolf browser, a redirect extension takes me to an invidious instance of my choosing, the NoScript extension blocks everything, but the url is all i really need.
I copy that url. I use yt-dlp to download video from invidious via my terminal emulator. Sponsorblock flags, give me captions flag, and if I’m willing to wait the extra time and give it the extra hard drive space, the best video flag. No ads, no sponsors, no JavaScript tracking me. Pure fuck marketers goodness.
