From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

My setup sounds very similar to terminhell's. I have a server where the host is running Proxmox and I have a dedicated little Debian VM in it to run PiHole. It has been very reliable and stable in the four years since I've set this up.
To get ad-blocking on the go I set up Wireguard for myself and my gf so that we are always on my VPN when we are off my local WiFi. This has been functionally set and forget.
I haven't used AdGuard so I cannot comment on it, but I have not been found wanting in the slightest with PiHole.
I have 225k domains blocked with the combination of filter lists I use. I just use a few of the good ones. You can find good lists here. https://firebog.net/
