• If I may clarify / simplify on the answers:

  • Contrary to the name, Pi Hole will run on most devices including a Raspberry Pi.
  • With PI’s current prices I’d not advise on the purchase of a new one, but rather reuse / buy a second hand server / laptop / anything that can run Pi Hole Min Required Specs for Pi Hole
  • After setting up Pi Hole you will need to change your current router’s DNS source to be the device that is running Pi Hole.
  • Let us know if you have further questions

• This is a good time to remind everyone to:

  • Install Pi Hole, get LG rules to nerf all the telemetric data going out
  • Jailbreak the TV, install SmartTube for your YouTube account without ads and live your best life
  • Edit: since some people asked for a Pi Hole configuration, I found a couple of them that I’m going to try out and tweak:

• That’s right. But are you suggesting we just sweep it under the rug and ignore the support of racist people? Because that is what big tech does and not a lot of people like it

• I get the frustration. It could have a tutorial / wizard to make it easier to set and understand.

  If some parts are not loading, check the top left of the address bar for some icons, by default LibreWolf blocks canvas and anything that can identify you, and you have to press on them to allow them to render the elements.

  Security unfortunately implies more inconvenience, which is what companies like Google love, but if it was a lot friendlier it would probably be less safe.
