Yup. I work from home and have a pihole on my network at home so I've gotten used to not seeing the ads.
Was browsing on mobile data while on the road and was reminded why its necessary. It was unbearable.
I do the same with an (almost) always-on vpn to the same pi with wireguard set up. I use Tasker on Android to auto start the wireguard tunnel if I disconnect from my home Wi-Fi. I typically only disable it if I'm running into issues with an app etc, and I'm too lazy to dig into and whitelist any relevant domain.
use nextdns
I'm working on setting up a VPN, so even when mobile I'll connect back through my home network to view filtered adverts. At least, I might end up using DNS from my home anyway.
