Pi-hole. Get rid of at least some ads on the network level. Maybe add unbound for a faster DNS response.
Using unbound on opnSense with blacklists. Works wonders and do not require an additional device.
I use unbound with pi-hole inside an Ubuntu lxc container. No additional device needed.

Pi-hole can run inside a docker container no problem. In fact I have it running on my unraid server that way.
I keep one in a docker container and one in an actual pi, that way I can perform updates and upgrades without interrupting DNS service at the house.
This is the way.
I like AdGuard Home myself.
