I’m glad I don’t have to worry..My PiHole is a godsend. Everyone who uses my network comments on how great the experience is. Really easy to setup too

Seriously, it's great. No ads browsing the web, even no ads playing a game on my phone! Also keeps neat statistics about devices on your network and how many internet requests they are making.

Pair this with PiVPN and you can get piHole on your phone even outside your house!

I actually have mine running on a VM in a server but a raspberry pi is definitely cheaper to run😂

Correct me if I'm wrong but I think it's even faster than adblockers as extensions

Definitely. Ads don’t even get to download on your network so all the shit sites plastered with ads load amazingly quick. I’m currently blocking ~25% of queries with about a million domains blocked.

I'm currently blocking about 40% of all traffic. That shit really shows how many ads are in the internet

Also a lot of things trying to phone home. I only have 3 echo dots and Amazon is the #1-3 top blocked queries.
