For additional content, you can accomplish ad blocking in a number of ways. The ones that immediately spring to mind:

browser extension: most modern browsers have some extension framework available. I've been using ublock origin for a number of years with reasonable results
VPN: some VPNs include ad blocking as a side benefit to their primary function. Nord doesn't seem to block ads on all mobile apps or is at least inconsistent in my experience
Network packet filter/PiHole: this has been on my to-do list for a while. Catches network traffic that looks like ads before it even reaches your device. Most involved and least portable

I've had some good results with NextDNS, as well

I’ve been using NextDNS for over a year now and it’s great. Been using that with hagezi pro block list with great results and minimal breakage.

Any idea if it runs DNS over TLS? I’d prefer my DNS requests be encrypted.

Sure does. You can also do DNS-over-HTTPS. I have a 100% encrypted DNS request rate across all my devices and anything behind my router.
