– In only a few simple steps, we will describe how to set up your own recursive DNS server. It will run on the same device you're already using for your Pi-hole. There are no additional hardware requirements. #PiHole #unbound https://docs.pi-hole.net/guides/dns/unbound/
What's funny is that again, even with our home PiHole (which has somewhat lax blocking for seamless internet browsing to any normie connected) got the malicious domain (mailchimp-sso .com) blocked
This is the second time my pihole blocked a phishing domain
First time installing Pi-Hole on a Raspberry Pi. Smooth sailing. 45 minutes install and setup. Not an ad in sight now.
Better order a mug now. https://pi-hole.net/shop/#page-content

#LG hat mal eben seine neuen Datenschutzrichtlinien auf dem #TV präsentiert. Bei #Zustimmung wird alles was geschaut wird per #ACR (Automatic Content Recognition) an #LG und #Alphonso.tv übermittelt. Und deren Werbepartner. Wenn ich das nicht tue, werden die #Apps gesperrt. Mal schauen was das #pihole dazu sagt. Hat noch jemand nen Tipp für einen genehmen #Prime/#Netflix/#Disney Player? #FCKLGE #KrichHals @noybeu
Upgraded all four of my pihole instances to v6. They’re working perfectly!
I love how a bunch of the “advanced” settings are now available from the UI. It makes initial set up so much easier.
Gah! I just noticed how much of my pihole top block list is accidental new masto instances.

The “Please disable your Ad blocker” is akin to…
Leave your house keys under the mat and turn off your security system.
Nope, I’m not having it.
Giving the Pi-hole client for Windows a try.
winget install tsutsu3.Pi-hole-client
Tired of the Internet going down when you reboot your Pi-Hole server?
Three Good Things
1. Figured out the Pi-Hole was doing a very good job, and added an exception.
2. Wife made me laugh by pretending to believe St Patrick was a leprechaun who chased out the snakes because they had stolen his Lucky Charms.
3. Read an award winning haiku that sucked.

I needed a script to continuously monitor the queries handled by a local Pihole installation, and this didn't yet seem to exist for version 6, so I wrote one. Someone else might also have some use for it, so here you go: https://gist.github.com/floe/cd64ada1b8cbea3018cffc4688da39d8
(Yes, it's not Codeberg, but they don't have gists (yet).)
Folks who want to hold off the escalating enshitification of Roku and keep their home screen working as originally intended, i.e. a place from which to launch apps to stream video, you should block
cloudservices.roku.com
in addition to using the Smart-TV Blocklist at
https://perflyst.github.io/PiHoleBlocklist/SmartTV.txt
for various "smart TV" platforms and streaming services (not specifically Roku).
@evacide Don't forget, we all also have to take steps to protect ourselves.
For example, #LibreWolf and #pihole are wonderful defensive tools
How much ram is enough for a pihole? I've been bidding on some 8gb used mini PCs, but I keep getting put bid. #pihole
#OrbitalSync is now compatible with Pihole v6, so I resurrected and rebuilt my backup #Pihole last night. My primary Pihole is hosted on my server, but for a backup Pihole it's honestly the best thing you can do with an original #RaspberryPi. You just need to be patient when running updates haha
Installing pihole 6 on Debian Sid:
You _may_ encounter a "dependency unmet error".
To fix - manually install "bind9-dnsutils" and "lshw", then edit basic-install.sh and find the creation of the debian-meta.deb package. Modify the dependency to look for bind9-dnsutils instead of just dnsutils.
Then - run the base-install.sh.
and serving all clients in my network.
