Same. Wireguard is a beautiful thing.

Which VPN service? I normally use Tailscale with the Pi as an exit node, but I'd like to have simultaneous VPN connection

I think people just use wireguard for this. And pivpn.

[-] chase@midwest.social 2 points 1 year ago

Interesting. I’ll have to look into PiVPN. Thanks!

[-] IrrerPolterer@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago

Same here. Wireguard.

Out of the box, pihole has a few block lists already set up. Those are pretty good already.

To add more, you can find some good block list collections online. No need to add them all. Pick a good handful, depending on the category of stuff you want to block. Here are some helpful links:

... Once you got a few block lists set up, you'll probably want to whitelist some things specifically, that are otherwise caught up in the filter. This is a super helpful resource for that:

There's a script on github (don't have the link right now) for an automated whitelist. I was expecting it to break some things or end up useless, but it was the perfect addition for me Edit: https://github.com/anudeepND/whitelist
