You could see if an adblock dns works, you dont even have to set up pihole for that (its just local hosted adblock/whattheheckyouwant dns).
If it makes problems you can set it to default or cloudflare or something

Setting another dns is in most cases just going to the settings and pasting a link

Edit: if you set the dns in your router it works at all devices at home

DNS blocking doesn't work on YouTube ads because they're served by the same domain of videos.
