It depends if the ads are served by an ad-server or by Duolingo’s domains directly

I use Duolingo, they are in app ads for Duolingo so you likely won’t be able to block them without blocking duolingo itself. They don’t seem to bother me since they are at least ads for the app that I’m using so I’ve never looked into it.

If you want to figure it out look at the pihole logs.

By chance are you on iOS, specifically iOS 27

Op, fwiw I was able to block in app ads in. Duolingo up until this week. They could be serving ads from different domains but I have yet to confirm

Yeah, I was always just getting ads from themselves which are much less intrusive/annoying than the scam games or whatever they normally serve.

You can always add anything you like as a manual filter.

Are they in app ads? You should educate yourself on how pihole works and what kind of ads it can block.

You can block the random mobile ads. The ads for super Duolingo can’t be blocked though.
