Comment on DNS-based tracker blocking vs local app-based tracker blocking,

  I’m using the rethinkdns.com app, which also gives me a firewall. You do not have to use the app though, you can configure a set of blocklists through their webpage, then add that to PrivateDNS.

    I’ve been using NextDNS foe a while. They do similar. I’ll check out rethink though. Always. Open to something different

    OK, I was thinking of piHole (+ unbound) as local DNS blocker. Sure, there are other ways. Thanks for clarifying that!

    Sounds like it's pretty much the same as NextDNS this way. Did you ever use NextDNS? If the answer is yes: What made you go with RethinkDNS over NextDNS?

      I have not used Next DNS, before RethinkDNS I was using Invizible Pro.
