If you want StevenBlack's hosts list to be network-wide I integrated it with an open source, self-hosted DNS server called https://pi-hole.net/ https://pi-hole.net/ last week which adds a slick admin interface and browser extensions too, then I put it all in a Vagrantfile and set my router to use the VM as a DNS server.

- dalanmiller 10y agoI use pi-hole at home and it's a great little tool for my home network and I think makes a noticeable difference on web browsing speeds. My only wish is that it would serve a page notifying me "this is possibly an ad, but would you like to continue?" versus just flat out blocking. I know there's a whitelisting functionality but it'd be cool if I could handle this directly in my actions in the browser.
