Honestly, personally I do not mind ads. But the amount of garbage that is loaded in the browser on popular sites make uBlock necessary for me.
Ublock Origin, privacy badger, pihole for home DNS.... Can't live without them
What does pihole do that Ublock does not?
Every non-PC, non-web browser on your network also reaps the benefit.
A DNS blocking system like Pihole can block ads on platforms you don't control, like smart TVs or mobile apps.
