Note that when I tried PiHole years ago, travel/flight-booking sites frequently required exemptions in order to operate. Not sure if the filtering is finer grained now, but it is not entirely a risk free proposition to set this up for an entire household.
- udev4096 2y agoThe default list is so small that I am inclined to believe you used an untested and unmaintained 3rd party block list. Use the lists from firebog.net and hagezi. They are well maintained and documented
- 000ooo000 2y agoFWIW the PiHole web UI and Flutterhole (Android app) have easily accessible 'disable for x mins' operations which can help for things like this.
- master_crab 2y agoThere’s also an iOS remote app I have used - pi-hole remote. Works wonders to temp disable pihole
- 3eb7988a1663 2y agoThe controls exist, but it is just one more "computer thing" to break for a non-techy audience. I thought about wiring up a physical button which would send the "disable for N minutes command" before I realized I was playing with too much fire.
- roland35 2y agoThat is why my wife won't use the pihole on my network - things like Google map links to hotels, Amazon shopping links, even target app pictures didn't work out of the box. I have a button on my stream deck to enable/disable pihole but I totally understand that is an annoyance for others!
- icelancer 2y agoYeah, I can't use this and I'm surprised it doesn't come up more often.
