    My Raspberry Pi running pihole finally shat itself last week. I did not realise how much garbage it was filtering out of my browsing experience until I went without it for a week.

    I just installed pihole on my Synology NAS using docker (which was a fairly simple process) and not only are the ads gone again, but browsing has sped up a little with a faster processing assisting with DNS services. That might be confirmation bias, but who cares, I'm glad all the ads are gone again.

    • huh, shit - thanks for making me check - apparently RPi4s are available again - it's been literal years!Nairn
    • @Nairn - check the Explaining Computers channel, there are heaps of other SBC options around nowadays too which are as good if not better.BuddhaHat
    • @Nairn Pi5 released todayBuddhaHat
    • Huh. Well I'm glad I couldn't be bothered to order a pi4 y'day :)Nairn
