Comment on Pihole + Unbound Docker Compose file
Outwit1294@lemmy.today 3 days agoI used a similar docker compose config. Yesterday I learned that unbound doesn’t have root.hints by default. I downloaded it following Anudeep’s guide on Github and it was working. But within 2 hours, it started taking too long to respond and eventually stopped replying to pihole. I had to switch to cloudflare.

Have you modified the default unbound config at all? This sounds like increasing the cache size limits and timeframes in the unbound config could help.
I’m actually chasing an issue I’ve always had where everything works great in my environment, but on mobile certain domains take ages to finally load up for me. I think it’s a combination of my Pihole blocking and the amount of domains tied to a page (advertisements and tracking), but would love to figure it out. I work around it right now by flipping wifi off and on again in those instances.

I have used pi-hole recommended config. I have used unbound recommended config (which feels incomplete and confusing). I have tried tweaks here and there. End result is this.
So far, the longest I have had success is with unbound docker container. The issue with that is that it seems to not be caching entries.
