Does anyone have a link for how to set up a pihole that a dumb dumb like me could understand?
If you are not so fit in this questions is better to install Portmaster, its downloading and run it, not much more to do (blocking or give permissions to connecting to the network to your apps. Maybe sellecting an DNS which fits your needs in the settings. It's way easier to handle than Pi Hole. It even has an SPN (its like a VPN on steroids), but its an paid option.
May you recover from your stroke quickly.
Honestly don't bother. Ublock is better at blocking ads. Pihole is for devices on your network that can't use conventional ad blockers and is less effective.
