meltedcheese@c.im 2 weeks ago@phant Pi-hole is super easy to set up and easy to build on. It’s been very robust for me and also eye-opening due to the excellent UI. About 5% of the network traffic in my house is now blocked. Thousands of DNS requests per day. Most of that is trackers. Apps and “smart” devices are very determined to phone home so you’ll have to block many of these domains manually as they show up. Be forewarned, some apps and web sites will simply stop working if you block their tracking and other info gathering on your network. Luckily, there is good #FOSS to substitute.
