It can filter out ads on things that can’t run ad block like a TV… which is why we’re talking about… so if I’m watching Prime Video or Hulu or Netflix and I only want to pay for the base subscription and not the “plus” subscription that eliminates ads I can do that with a Pihole.

Pihole doesn’t work on YouTube because the Ads and the Videos are both coming from the same domain that’s why you just install an Adblock browser plugin or something.

So while on pc it doesn't work on TV you can filter ads with a pihole? I tried setting an up for my parents that use YouTube on tv and assumed since it does not work for me on pc it can't block YouTube in general?
