Nothing in here about disabling adware, which is pretty much the only thing I care about.

LG WebOS is based on Linux.

Which adware? I have an LG OLED TV, and I never saw any ads in the menus or whatever.

I do only use with apps or am external source (no DTV or cable), so maybe it’s that?

I think you can do that using PiHole

Or get a decent /etc/hosts file .

I haven't tried setting up PiHole yet. Does it "break" any of the interwebz for me in the way client-side ad blockers sometimes can? Any pitfalls I need to be aware of?

A fair few routers also allow a rule similar to “if traffic is on port 53 traffic and not from PiHole, send to PiHole.”
