      A dns blocker cannot do anything more than ublock. It is nice for other apps though.

        A DNS blocker is great for other devices on your network!

        It works very well on browser and outside the browser. So if your software/hardware is phoning home, it will pick it up.

      Or Adguard Home, that I think is superior than Pi-Hole. It runs as a single instance and you can easily upgrade it from the web UI.

      OpenWRT router with DNS over HTTPS for the whole network. Come for the easy adblock, stay for the updated router distribution and the best anti-buffer bloat features in any Router software.

      I am using NextDNS. Is there any advantage of using Pihole over nextDNS?

        Not that I can think of other than having more control (such as adding any Blocklist etc)
