On the flip side I've got 4 different devices across 3 operating systems, but putting it at the DNS layer it just works.

FWIW I've been running pihole for almost a year, aside from the issue with Burrow and some social media redirect links used to track(that I want to block) I've not had any other false positives.

Firefox + ublock origin works on mac/windows/linux/android/bsd/some more unusual OS

On almost any machine you could have save for ios.

Yeah, and as much as I love Firefox, the android implementation just isn't up to the level to where I can use it as a daily driver.

I've got nothing against browser blockers, I just prefer something that works in a unified way as a network policy.

What's not up to par for you? Before I went back to iOS (where I use 1Blocker as a content blocker for Safari), Firefox for Android plus uBlock Origin did pretty well for me.
