      Fantastic advice. I’d be lost without the ability to VPN back to my home for DNS blocking. Plus the ability to safely connect to everything on my LAN without exposing ports (NAS, Home Assistant, cameras, etc). Thanks for mentioning this!

      Pihole is 100% awesome but I just want mention that AdGuard is great on iOS devices to deal with ads while away from home. There is also AdGuard Home which is compareable to Pihole and is also free software (GPL 3).

      Indubidubly, and a cherry on top. Not only is Pi-hole an Adblocking DNS server, it’s also a DNS server and solves any issue with name resolution at the door for your services.

      dns certs? Pihole’s got you.
