    Pihole does not stop youtube ads as they are served through youtube's domains. You need ublock or something like that.

    Having everything connected to the router automatically get ad blocking is great.

    I do wish the pihole was easier to use. I don't think my parents would be up for manually updating it via SSH in a console.

    You can access the web client from any connected machine and do it from there.

    Also you can save the IP from the machine running it as a local DNS entry, something like pi.hole, so they can just type pi.hole/admin in the browser to access the dashboard

    Yeah, not having ads in the phone app, the TV app, the music app on the phone or in the browser is really nice, I love it. Also got that for all my friends and family.

    Never paid YouTube a dime though :)
