My Raspberry Pi SD card finally died after almost 10 years, and I was hosting Pi-Hole on it. After a year of Pi-Hole I didn’t realize how many things had freaken ads. They pop up everywhere! I really need to get a new SD card :(
Ublock origin
That only stops browser activity? What about windows, discord, nvidia, … ? :p
Those are all blocked on my pihole ( i run both pihole and ublock btw )I guess I just don’t trust Windows discord and Nvidia. I don’t think DNS filtering will protect you if they control the computer
Or both, both is good.
You don’t need uBlock if you have a pihole properly configured, but you still need a pihole even if you have uBlock properly configured. uBlock is a half measure. An incomplete solution, but better than nothing.
I wish I could pi-hole.
I use NextDNS and it’s good for my devices, but Google sponsored links won’t work with it. Sometimes I have to turn it off temporarily to get something done.
Also, my wife works from home in social media. I can’t really block ads network-wide because she needs to see them.
😕
Working should really happen on a separate network though, business has no business being conducted on a private one.
I don’t bother with PiHole because DNS-based ad blocking quite frankly sucks and is only getting worse.
I’m still waiting for someone like AdGuard to release a MITM proxy that does something similar to uBlock Origin and strips ads directly from the network traffic
But until then, browser extensions are good enough for most usecases (Firefox user so the adblocking ones work on mobile as well)
When I want an ad gone, I reach for brand name soda. Brand name soda, it means you’re smart.
Not if it is my ad, Golden Globe nominated movie, Barbie, is now available on Blu-ray and select streaming services.
Nowhere is safe. No where.
My block ads Magisk module:
Well you can’t just say

IDK I just found it in a Telegram group, but a simple search can find you what you want.
