I know you can get good results with NextDNS, but lately I haven’t been a fan of subscriptions and those free trials. I’d like to find something similar, or even better

Privacy Guides is a good resources for this.

NextDNS has a free tier. Are you at risk of going over 300,000 queries per month limit? That’s quite a bit for home users.
Even then it still functions as a DNS without blocking.
300K is nothing but a taste, for normal usage. I’ve been using NextDNS on my home network for a few years. I average 1.2 million queries/month. And that’s with cache boost (forced minimum TTL) enabled.
$20/year is worth every penny. The amount of time you save in blocking all the ads and surveillance marketing services is worth 10x that.
To each their own. I have over 30 devices on my network and am no where close to 300,000 unique queries but maybe im significantly underestimating the average user.
Considering how many other good free solutions (or non subscription based) there are I tend to doubt paying for the pro version of NextDNS is worth it if you are going over the free limit.
