I’ve been using pi-hole for the last 3 or 4 years and I’m pretty satisfied with it. Now I’m thinking about the next step. Nowadays I have my local network and a tailscale to access my hosts. I’m thinking about a DNS solutions to solve the names on the locla network and thru tailscale simultanely, while been able to block ads on DNS like pi-hole do. What do you think would be a better solution for this next step? I’ve only used bind before, but I think and old dog can learn a new trick.
If you’re referring to network based DNS, I use their script to have it on my Ubiquiti router as well. I have that with its own profile with full blocking for iot etc.
I had PiHole with unbound on my OPNsense way back when, but the internet just needs to work for both me and my family and not go offline with me tinkering with the homelab. NextDNS takes all of that hassle out of the equation.
