The combination of pihole and raspberry pi has impressed me. I just checked and the last reboot of my pi was 180 days ago, and since then things have just worked.
It's in stark contrast with my server, which admittedly has more demanding tasks. For $35 it's the most trustable computer I bought, I now have a lot of respect for the Pi foundation.
- mulmen 6y agoIs uptime really desirable in this situation? How do you get security updates for a device that lives near the edge of your network?
- m3at 6y agoYou're right that's a fair question. My comment was trying to highlight the robustness of the system more than uptime being a good metric for quality. By that I mean that I didn't _have_ to reboot to keep the system healthy enough to stay alive. That's unfortunately not the case of some other hardware I deal with. For my Pi I regularly update without a reboot, but that might not be enough for kernel updates. I will look more into it.
