What services are you having trouble with? My RPi PiHole has been working great for whole-house blocking for a half-decade now.

- ryaneager 3y agoLikewise. My biggest tip is set your secondary DNS to something outside your networks so if your pi-hole goes down your entire network doesn’t go down you just get ads.
- smolyeet 3y agoThere’s also nextdns which I was planning on switching to anyways
- berniedurfee 3y agoI’ve been using NextDNS for a few years now. I don’t have time to mess with an ‘on prem’ solution. It works really well and is simple to manage. It runs on my mobile devices easily. I turn it off occasionally to shop, but immediately turn it back on as the internet is a whole different place without some sort of robust ad blocking. It’s nice to see the logs fill up with blocked telemetry and other crap all day.
- sizzle 3y agoIs it okay to use cloudflare dns?
- fbdab103 3y agoAirplane booking sites seem incapable of working with a Pihole. Presumably the entire travel industry is similar
- berniedurfee 3y agoI use a chrome extension or app to switch DNS to something like 1.1.1.1 when a site I need can’t handle blocked DNS calls.
