Excellent question. You can set the Pi-hole as a default DNS provider on your router which will the set it as a DNS provider for any device connected via DHCP (which in a home network should be basically everything). This means ads will be blocked across all devices and apps instead of just your browser where you installed adblock.
Thanks for clarifying. In my case that's basically zero gain then cos all my devices have ad block in their browsers and I generally either use apps that have no ads or use revanced to remove them
