Selfhosted
A place to share alternatives to popular online services that can be self-hosted without giving up privacy or locking you into a service you don't control.
Rules:
-
Be civil: we're here to support and learn from one another. Insults won't be tolerated. Flame wars are frowned upon.
-
No spam posting.
-
Posts have to be centered around self-hosting. There are other communities for discussing hardware or home computing. If it's not obvious why your post topic revolves around selfhosting, please include details to make it clear.
-
Don't duplicate the full text of your blog or github here. Just post the link for folks to click.
-
Submission headline should match the article title (don’t cherry-pick information from the title to fit your agenda).
-
No trolling.

On Mikrotik I have a script that runs every 30sec. If pi-hole not responding, router switches to public cloudflare dns records, otherwise to pi-hole IP.
This setup works like a charm.
P.S. I am using Blocky, but it's almost the same as Pi-Hole.
EDIT: Since at least 2 guys asked how to do it:
https://forum.mikrotik.com/viewtopic.php?p=866934#p866934
Don't forget to configure Mikrotik router to act as passthrough DNS server with cache (for performance) and configure DHCP server's DNS to router's IP.
Seconding the request to share your work.
That is an amazing idea you've come up with that I never considered, but now I need it.
Aight, let me do it.. 😅
