If I use a VPN on the device hosting Pi-hole, does Pi-hole use the VPN?
I have a NAS running Windows hosting Pi-hole thanks to this. I use a VPN on that NAS and it connects to a server in another country. When I check the IP on any of my other devices, where the Pi-hole is the DNS server, the results show my IP is in my country. When I check the IP on the NAS, it shows as being in the other country.

As the pinned comment in that thread indicates, support queries for such should be directed to the project.

Close to Complete PH4WSL Setup - Cannot Figure out iPhone and other Devices
Also worth mentioning that on the project page, it states it's not an 'official' supported install method, and you should use the project's issues page for support questions. Don't want to bug the devs with an issue that might be Windows-specific.

I want to use pihole on windows
NOTE: It's not an 'official' method to run Pi-hole, which means do not request support here. Use the project's GitHub site and file an issue there instead.

Browser extensions spy on you, even if its developers don't
You can also use a declarative adblocker like uBlock Origin Lite [1], which only provides the browser with a list of elements to filter, but doesn't have any permissions to read content or perform requests. Or simply use your hosts file to apply OS-wide filtering with no browser add-ons needed: https://github.com/StevenBlack/hosts
Be aware that if you use these "passive" blocking methods, there are some sites like YouTube where you will see ads, because in these cases it's necessary to actually manipulate page content to hide them. What you can do is use a traditional adblocker but enable it only for these few sites where the declarative approach is not enough, take a look at [2] for more details.

[Paid Release]CCAdsBeGone - Customized Ads Blocking At Your Fingertips
When I select my custom hosts file, it basically breaks internet. However, if I choose a custom hosts file that is a copy of the dev's default, or if I just add a few lines to it, it will work. If I add too many lines, or use a different hosts file altogether (like the ones recommended by the dev), all connectivity breaks. Of course the latest official LetMeBlock is installed and mDNSResponder killed/restarted. I'm using Dopamine on A12+.
