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

DuckDuckGo player does pretty good.

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

Where do you enter the 'pihole -up' command in the web client?

Forreal I use pihole and I get ads. Is bro on something we don’t know about? Why say anything about pihole if you literally have never used it lol
