    i used to just use like browser extensions and stuff and now have a pi hole setup for my home network, and its game changing. Even mobile apps are now ad free. Its awesome.

      Pi Hole couldn’t block YouTube ads last time I tried it, which is one of the main things I want to have adblock for. So I went back to ublock origin.

        Yeah YouTube ads are stubborn! But hey, por que no los dos? I run pinhole as my DNS on a little server and Ublock on all my end user machines.

        It makes the web…bearable again.

        a combo is definitely best. Pihole gets stuff the extensions dont and the extensions get stuff pihole doesnt. Together they block 99% of unwanted bs. Pihole can even block malware and telemetry if u configure it to.
