I’ve been using Mullvad DNS (the adblocking variant) on my phone to block ads and I have to say, it works pretty well. I didn’t even know some of my Play apps have ads, it’s that effective.
I wish Mullvad would expand their service to offer something like NextDNS with blocklists. I love DNS expect for the fact that they are based in the US and have the capability of logging.
That said, without the occasional log I would probably never have been able to fix some issues.
I use ControlD on my router. On my phone (IOS), I use Aha DNS Blitz because it uses a VPN profile instead of an app, so it protects you on any network you’re connected to (home wifi, mobile data, public wifi, etc.).
Personally I use dnscrypt and filter requests myself (with the help of filter lists of course) with postmaster on desktop and rethinkdns on android (using quad9 dnscrypt option, but on pc I hand picked the servers).

Is this different than PiHole?
ControlD also used a VPN profile on iOS, here’s a screenshot from my phone
Oh I didn’t know that! I’ll try it. Thanks for this!
Running a lot of DoH and DoT within my devices and my network
Nice.
