I've heard a couple people talk about this, but I never figured out how it works. Is there something you program into your router? Do you have to buy something?
I suppose that it depends on your router, but I ended up just buying a Raspberry Pi. It’s actually pretty straight forward. If you can configure a home internet router then you can set up Pi Hole.
Be forewarned that it does not block YouTube ads (which are the bane of my existence).
Yeah, I mostly watch it on my Fire Stick and Apple TV. Since the Fire Stick is basically an Android device, I’m holding out hope that the Vanced project is resurrected and I can load it onto it.

Newpipe is a good open-source, adblocking Youtube app for Android. It's available on the FDroid appstore.

On android, the Brave browser will play youtube videos and block ads. Though you can't get background playback
