Any recommended settings for PiHole so it doesnt block Dave's ad money?

Ad seems to be from beacons(1-5).gvt2.com  I could unblock that but it will unblock it for every site as far as I know.
Maybe that is fine?

(I'm pretty new to PiHole, just installed it this morning)

Donating $5 will contribute more than many years of looking at his ads.
For the forum he also sells based on users not based on impressions, last time I saw. Though some like aliexpress are referral links, so you could bookmark that and click it before you buy something.

Forum ones:

That does sound like an easier way to go.
