Switch off bad TV settings
Another neat idea is to connect all “smart” equipment to an isolated vlan and separate wifi that can still be seen by your normal network devices.
For example if your wifi was called “Home”, an additional “Home-IoT” is for every device.
The IoT devices can then be set to not sniff your network, or even connect out if you want.
A good example of this is in this EdgeRouter setup guide, which is a pretty decent guide on how to plan a home network for more than just basic home browsing.

Home Assistant blocked from integrating with Garage Door opener API
One extra step I’ve learned to follow is to verify if needed, could the hardware be permanently redirected to a local server, and worst case reflagged with a different firmware or it can be redirected to remain local. The latter is sometimes easier if it’s a Tuya based device, which a lot of these unknown devices are.
https://github.com/make-all/tuya-local
One of the main things these “smart” devices do is use your internet connection. It’s wise to create a dedicated _IoT suffixed wifi which can’t access your network or devices, but at the same time your other devices can ping them.
How?
This is a pretty solid guide of a home network setup here. It can be running a $50 EdgeRouter X or translated to other devices.

The NSA and CIA Use Ad Blockers Because Online Advertising Is So Dangerous
I followed this guy on Youtube and this guide on github to set up an Edge Router X. It was cheap and does all this, but was harder than I thought it would be to set up, even with a video guide.

DNS server set to Pihole but no traffic
I've added the Ads & Tracking list and the AMP Hosts list from Developer Dan to the default list; any others you recommend I add? It's hard to tell if the ads coming through are a 'my blocklist isn't good enough' problem or a 'my pihole's not set up properly yet' problem.

Is it okay to use pi-hole if I don’t know what the hell I’m doing?
This is how you learn. Going forward you'll start noticing some ads and some not, based on the default adlist. I think the default adlist is good enough for starting. But you should also look into developer dan's adlist and ticked firebog adlist.

What filters do you people use for adguard?
Enable most of the default ones, use DNS filtering. I use Cloudflare DNS. And for some third-party filters you can load, I recommend Steven Black hosts, OISD blocklists, Developer Dan hosts and AnudeepND Blacklist.

The Blocklist Project - These lists were created because the founder of the project wanted something with a little more control over what is being blocked. Many lists out there are all or nothing. We set out to create lists with more control over what is being blocked and believe that we have accomplished that.
