i think i tried them all nothing seems to work.. people in chat i have no ads and i use ad blockers and wont tell u want they used..
So, I'm using Firefox, I have ublock origin, Sponsor block, adblocker ultimate and adguard, and Youtube's still showing that stupid "doesn't allow adblockers" message. I was using a private window and that helped for a while, but now I'm getting that message there too.
Help. Please.
Any way to block ads on fb app ? Is there a mod like it is for YouTube like vanced, morphe yt and so on for fb ?
I'm trying to configure Pi-hole to strike a balance between usability and aggressive ad/tracker blocking, particularly for Reddit and Pinterest. However, I'm running into some frustrating issues and would appreciate advice from experienced Pi-hole users.
1. Reddit – Broken browsing and app functionality
I want to access Reddit normally through both the browser and Android app while blocking as many advertisements, trackers and unnecessary domains as possible.
Currently, my configuration causes the following problems:
I've added the following regex allow rules:
[^A-Za-z0-9]+.reddit.com[^A-Za-z0-9]+.redditmedia.com[^A-Za-z0-9]+.redd.itreddit.comDespite these rules, Reddit still doesn't function reliably.
My question: What's the correct approach to allow Reddit's essential functionality (posts, comments, images, videos, uploads and media) without allowing its advertisements, tracking and promotional content?
Ideally, I'd like to avoid having to whitelist Reddit entirely.
2. Pinterest – Advertisements aren't being blocked
Pinterest is another headache.
Despite using Pi-hole and maintaining an updated blocklist configuration, advertisements continue appearing in the Android app.
I've also tried accessing Pinterest through a VPN, but the advertisements still load.
I've added the following regex allow rules for Pinterest-related domains:
However, these haven't resolved the advertising issue.
My question: Is Pinterest serving advertisements through the same domains it uses to deliver regular images and content? If so, is there a reliable way to distinguish and block advertisements without breaking images, pins, videos and other app functionality?
3. Current Pi-hole configuration
A few things worth mentioning:
What I'm ultimately trying to achieve:
I'd appreciate recommendations for specific allowlist/blocklist entries, regex rules, configuration changes or alternative approaches.
Is this realistically achievable with DNS-level blocking, or have I reached the limitations of what Pi-hole can do with these platforms?
Thanks in advance!

| I currently use "Adblock from Capital One Shopping." I got it from the Chrome store, and it's worked wonderfully so far, but this seems to be the only thing it can't break though. Anyone got any suggestions for an alternative adblock, or anything that could get me through this? Thanks. Update: Thanks to u/Venylynn, I got uBlock Origin Lite, and it's working perfectly.
