Apple TV and iOS YouTube ads are not blocked by Pi-hole, so I researched this and discovered a flaw in Protobuf that allows me to restrict YouTube ads.

FYI: On Android TV you just need to install an app called "SmartTubeNext".
Revanced is the app to use on your Android phone, it works seamlessly with the above app. No ads on your phone, no ads on TV.

Wow, this seems like something incredibly hard to achieve, and even when I like many others enjoy this kind of thinkering... I wouldn't attempt this (I'm also an user of Revanced and STN).
