I think I misspoke. I understand Pi-Hole.
What I'm talking about is publicly usable adblocking DNS servers. As in instead of me at home having to install anything, just (probably clear a cache or something) and change all my DNS servers to a public reachable-by-anyone DNS server. No installation.
- abawany 4y agoNextDNS, which I've been using for over 2 years now, might help in your endeavor. In addition to its stock lists of lookup rules, you are allowed to customize your own blacklists/whitelists.
- barbazoo 4y agoThank you for mentioning this. It's so convenient to manage that kind of filtering through a service. Works for all platforms too. I can finally bteak my reddit addiction again.
- raffraffraff 4y agoI use NextDNS but I don't use it for adblock because if it breaks a website (which happens) I need a quick way around it that isn't a DNS change. I suppose I could use another browser that uses DNS over HTTPS via Cloudflare but I've chosen Firefox and uBlock origin. I use NextDNS to block actual websites like Twitter, Reddit and occasionally HN. It is nice to support a company that provides configurable DNS.
