blocking YouTube ads can't really be done just with a DNS adblocker tho. if it could then my pihole would be blocking them too

It's a proxy though, so it could inspect the actual content, detect ads and do something about it. Peertube, Grayjay etc bypass ads just fine so I guess it could be done with the webapp?

If you install a TLS certificate theoretically yes

[–] notasandwich1948 2 points 11 months ago (1 children)

it can't inspect the content because https exists. it can only see where you are attempting to connect to

Well yeah it would have to MITM the connection, like Avast does.
