I’ve been aware of pi-hole for a while now, but never bothered with it because I do most web browsing on a laptop where browser extensions like uBlock origin are good enough. However, with multiple streaming services starting to insert adds into my paid subscriptions, I’m looking to upgrade to a network blocker that will also cover the apps on my smart TV.

I run most of my self hosted services on a proxmox server, so I’d like something that’ll run as an LXC container or a VM. I’m also vaguely aware that various competing applications have come out since pi-hole first gained popularity. Is pi-hole still the best thing going, or are there better options?

    Hold on, this is not the same encryption

    The encryption i was talking about is the encryption of your dns server

    The article you sent is talking about upstream dns server encryption

      You mean encryption between the client and your DNS server, on your local network?

        You can do it on your local network, but this won’t make much sense

        I mean encryption between your phone or laptop outside of your house, and your dns server at your house
