For those that prefer algo, there is an open issue to add Pi-Hole (https://github.com/trailofbits/algo/issues/1258) and in my fork I've added Pi-Hole support: https://github.com/dan-v/algo. It's a really nice setup especially on mobile devices where you typically have to choose between using a VPN or using adblock as they typically require a local VPN hack to function.

Algo user here -- it's really great for ISP-oriented privacy protection. I have a $5/month droplet running Algo in DigitalOcean, and an auto-on mobile config on my iPhone that uses it when I'm not on WiFi.

I also set up my home pfSense router to route all traffic through it (via an IPSec/IKEv2 tunnel). This works great, except when we're using Netflix or Amazon video -- I have to turn it off since those services block DigitalOcean IPs. Still haven't figured out how to configure the pfSense tunnel to route requests to those services through my ISP instead.
