Is it possible to create a VPN app that hides the IP Address and comes with an in-built Ad Blocking system? (lemmy.ml)

+1 to this. Tailscale makes it incredibly easy to create that mesh VPN. Get your pihole listening on the Tailscale network and that takes care of the ad-blocking part. About changing the IP address though, that's a different topic. Will need to have a commercial VPN configured on that server and use that as an exit node.
