Nope. Youtube ads are served from the same domains as the videos so there is nothing you can to to block them via DNS. Your best bet is just installing Ublock for them. Now a days an ad blocker is a security necessity anyways.
Installing uBlock is so quick, all you need is 30 seconds of their consent to lean over their shoulder and install it. The whole process can be faster than the actual ad break, in some cases.
I actually really like the unified remote app. It lets you use your phone as a remote for any computer on the same network. I think the premium version just lets you link more computers otherwise the free version is just as good.
Pi-hole won’t block Youtube ads. uBlock Origin does.
Is there any router side solutions for YouTube adds? I want to block for my family, but they don’t see the point.

You have to set up a proxy.
Even for those who are technical enough to set up a pihole, it’s annoying to set up a proxy and some apps simply won’t work with it.
I would love to learn how to block YouTube ads with a proxy. Do you have a link to instructions?
Not sure if these instructions work. First result from Google.
