Awesome, thanks! I was reading over dnsfilter.c/h the other day, then ran across the json files and figured I'd just ask in here instead Gotcha, thanks! I appreciate all the input. I'm just going to take the custom iptables managing approach with API calls to PiHole so I can automate it all...

Expeditiously! :D - unwatched

So it's OK for you to tell other people what they should be doing, based on a personal opinion, but when they refute with reason, you drop an oldschool quote that's supposed to hold value? Comical. Great! This isn't a board meeting.

Nope, your assumptions are incorrect. Of course the list is deduped, and covers more than just porn/telemetry. If you haven't noticed already, I have advanced knowledge on the topic, and fwiw I work in tech as a DCTO.

Thanks, that's all I needed to know - it looked pretty baked in but I couldn't tell what you even use /www/ajax/dns_db.json and /www/ajax/DNS_List.json for then when they seem to have the list that's displayed in the UI. The UI opts should be dynamically built based on those JSON's..

Sweet, thanks!

This isn't an ask to change upstream. This is an ask on how to do it local since there's already 20 other options in the custom DNS filter dropdown I don't use, and just need to get 1-2 extras in there that I would use. Not to mention, I can just mount configs in place like other addons that can...

That's a personal opinion. My blocklist consists of 11.1 million garbage domains and the VPS does way more than my router/a pihole for $3/mo Sure, if you have ~100k blocked domains No, it doesn't. I don't need to change my router, or setup, just to get ~4 iptables rules added in. I just felt...

You're a bit behind on what's going on here. Fwiw, I already did that, and moved from local Pi to remote VPS with a PiHole instead. AdGuard on your router and Pi's don't have enough resources for large ad lists. I already support DoH/DoT/custom DNS client groups, and this has nothing to do...

This is such a FALSE statement based on a personal misconception which I have to get back to since people might actually believe you. You cannot honestly say that NVRAM would increase at any rate that would matter by simply adding 1-2 more custom DNS options. You're literally talking bytes of...

Thanks! It's a bit complex but gets the job done :) Yes, but it works easiest with Android devices using Private DNS (iOS doesn't have native support :(). Private DNS is basically DoT. I have a VPS in a local DC that's ~5ms away, that VPS runs PiHole with DoT exposed through an Nginx proxy...

Here's a bit of insight into what my network architecture looks like. Mind you, it's way more extensive than the avg bear, but covers: - sharing a single external PiHole (1 ipv4, 1 ipv6, multiple ssl vhosts) for DoT/DoH/VPN+DNS Director across ~20 devices, with 5 client groups - using client...

4-5.. yeah, it seems like I might as well do it manually at this point Wrong resolver config :)

Nothing to do with it… already setting devices to remote dns by mac Honestly, that’s just a personal opinion. Adding 1-2 more custom dns entries wouldn’t make or break anything in reality, with resources considered. I simply have the need to use more custom dns because that’s how I choose to...

Because I have 3 kids and we all use a different vlan IP for custom groups/identifying who's doing what. If you ever had to share DoT/DoH+LAN across 20+ devices you would understand :) So, it's possible, but how?
